In the line-ups
6 appearances in recorded line-ups · 1994–2000The archive holds 6 team sheets naming Luc Nilis in Belgium's starting line-up, from 1994-06-19 to 2000-06-19.
6 appearances in the starting line-ups the archive holds — not a career total. Our line-up coverage is partial, so a match he played that we hold no sheet for is simply not counted here.
