Ernest Moreau de Melen

Ernest Moreau de Melen (20 February 1879 – 17 January 1979) was a Belgian footballer who played for FC Liégeois between 1895 and 1907,[1][2] and who competed in the 1900 Olympic Games, winning a bronze medal as a member of a mixed team representing Belgium that was mostly made-up of students from the Université de Bruxelles.

[5] During this period, Liégeois had an unbeaten run of 23 official matches that lasted over two years, between 28 February 1897 and 12 November 1899, coming to an end in a 3–5 loss to Antwerp FC.

[3][7] On 3 January 1904, Moreau de Melen was the only Liégeois player who played for Belgium in a 6–4 win over the Netherlands in the Coupe Vanden Abeele, an unofficial friendly cup.

[8] On 7 May 1905, the 26-year-old Moreau de Melen earned his first and last international cap for the official Belgium side, making his debut as captain in a friendly match against France at Uccle, which ended in a record-breaking 7–0 victory,[9] and this winning margin remained unmatched for seven years until Belgium's 9–2 win over Switzerland in 1912.
