Wanny van Gils (February 10, 1959 – July 28, 2018) was a Dutch football player and coach.[1]

Club career

He was under contract with NAC Breda, Beringen and Willem II.[2] His wonderful solo-goal against Eindhoven in 1991 was long time dubbed as "the lost goal" since there seemed to be no footage of it.[3]

Personal life

After football, he became an insurance consultant and began his own business in financial services. He also managed VV TSC, a Dutch football club.[4]
