Joachim Streich (born April 13, 1951 in Wismar) is a former East German football player, who won the bronze medal with the DDR at the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich.
He played as a striker for Aufbau Wismar (1957 - 1963), then TSG Wismar (1963 - 1967), Hansa Rostock (1967 - 1975) and 1. FC Magdeburg (1975 - 1985).
From 1969 to 1984 he was capped 98 times for East Germany, scoring 53 goals. This does not include four caps and two goals in the 1972 Summer Olympics football tournament, which were ruled out unofficial by FIFA.
He also played 378 games in the DDR-Oberliga, scoring 229 goals.
After the end of his career he coached, among others, 1. FC Magdeburg, Eintracht Braunschweig and FSV Zwickau.
Surprisingly enough Streich continues to be active as a kicker for a lower league Magdeburg Virgin Guards American football team.
