Roland Benschneider (born August 22, 1980) is a German footballer.

[edit] Biography

Born in Neuruppin, Benschneider honed his craft as a defender with FC Neubrandenburg and Energie Cottbus. In the 2000/01 season he switched to the Northern Regional league and played for Tennis Borussia Berlin.

Only one year into his stint at Borussia, the player, who grew greatly in confidence during this period, moved to Eintracht Trier in the Southern Regional League, where by 2002/03 he was to become a fully-fledged squad player.

In the next season he moved to Arminia Bielefeld, whose league position he helped to boost in the subsequent weeks and months. Uwe Rapolder was to notice the player, and he joined 1. FC Köln for €200,000. However, in the opening season Benschneider played only twelve full games. In the 2005/06 season he played mainly as a substitute once again, and scored his first goal against Schalke 04. Benschneider's contract with Köln lasts to the end of the 2005/06 season.
