Louis Nicolay was a Belgian sports delegate and one-day (caretaker)manager of theBelgium national football team.
After the dismissal of Belgian national coachAndré Vandewyer, no successor was assigned. Therefore Nicolay, who was part of the Belgian selection committee, took over the managerial role for one game in Belgium's1958 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign.[2] This match on 4 September 1957 was a success as the national squad beatIceland by 2–5.[1] After this match, the HungarianGéza Toldi became Belgium's next permanent manager. Because of this, Nicolay has been the only Belgium coach with a 100% victory rate as of 2016[update].
