Club career
Hertig was part of the Lausanne-Sport team, one of the greatest in the club's history, which would be nicknamed the "Lords of the Night" (French: Seigneurs de la Nuit), as they played and shone particularly at night while most other teams played Sunday afternoon. The team was coached by Austrian Karl Rappan, and included Richard Dürr, André Grobéty, Heinz Schneiter and Ely Tacchella. The team won two Swiss Cup titles in 1962 and 1964,[2] before winning the 1964–65 Nationalliga A, the club's seventh and most recent national championship title.[3]
