Hitzfeld did enjoy his success but he was still sacked, in that sense he suffered the same fate as Magath and Co.

Well done for spotting my deliberate mistake about Hitzfeld!

I should have left him off the list, sorry.

Great names such as Giovanni Trapattoni, Felix Magath, Ottmar Hitzfeld and Klinsmann have all tried in vain.

Ottmar Hitzfeld brought a European Championship in 2001 while he nearly made it in 1999, which is so you call “tried in vain”.
