Gabriëlla Maria Melis (born August 31, 1986 in Ridderkerk ) is a former Dutch soccer player and today's coach. The striker was active for the Dutch women's national team from 2004 to 2016 , of which she was temporarily the record scorer.
Career
Melis grew up in the southern Dutch town of Ridderkerk. Her father Harry was a soccer player himself and stormed for Feyenoord Rotterdam in the late 1970s . At the age of seven she began her career with the local association RVVH Ridderkerk. During her entire youth, she played in boys' teams and was hardly interested in women's football. In 2004 she was voted the most talented player in the Netherlands. In summer 2005, FCR 2001 Duisburg wanted to sign Melis, but received a rejection. Instead, Melis went to Be Quick 28 Zwolle a year later.
During the winter break, she became the first Dutch player to move to the Swedish Damallsvenskan for LdB FC Malmö . Together with the Brazilian Marta , she was the top scorer in the 2008 season with 23 goals. Two years later she won the championship with Malmö and was the sole top scorer with 25 goals. After a detour to league rivals Linköpings FC , she returned to LdB FC Malmö in 2013, but moved to Göteborg FC the following year . With 14 goals, she was the second best goalscorer of the 2014 season.
For the 2016 season she switched to NWSL participant Seattle Reign FC , where she was the most successful attacker with seven goals of the season. Melis ended her career in November 2016.
National teams
In 2003 she took part with the U-19 team in qualifying for the 2003 U-19 European Women's Football Championship . At the mini-tournament of the second round, the home advantage could be used and together with Italy the final round could be reached. At the finals , the team was eliminated in the group stage. In autumn the team made a new attempt. At the mini-tournament of the first round in Macedonia was u. a. the hosts beaten 19-0, with Melis scoring five goals. As group winners with 30-0 goals, the second round was reached, in which only fourth place was taken. This ended her time as a U-19 player, as she played her first international A match on April 25, 2004 during the qualifying tournament. Oddly enough, she only knew one of her teammates before the game started. After being substituted for the second half, she scored her first international goal in the 76th minute, making it 2-0 against Belgium (final score 3-0). From then on she was used again and again and in 2009 she took part with the national team for the first time in the European Championship finals , where she reached the semi-finals. She was also in the squad for the 2013 European Championship finals and made her 100th international match against Norway as the seventh Dutch woman . Since she and her teammates failed to score, the Dutch were eliminated as the bottom of the group.
In September 2014, the World Cup qualification was finished in second place behind Norway . The Dutch women therefore had to go to the playoffs of the four best runners-up in the group and prevailed against Scotland and Italy , qualifying for the World Cup for the first time. At the Cyprus Cup 2015 , the qualifications could not be confirmed and they lost z. B. the game for 7th place against the Scottish women, who they had eliminated in the World Cup playoffs. With seven goals, Manon Melis had a decisive part in the qualification. On April 15, 2015 she was initially appointed to the provisional squad for the 2015 World Cup and then to the final squad on May 10. At the World Cup, the Dutch made it to the round of 16, but were eliminated by defending champion Japan and thus missed direct qualification for the 2016 Olympic Games . Melis was used in the four games, but remained without a goal.
At the qualifying tournament for the Olympic Games in her home country in March 2016, Melis scored two goals, which made her the best goalscorer of the tournament together with Norwegian Ada Hegerberg , but as the second of the four participants, the Dutch finally missed the Olympic Games. She then resigned from the national team.
Melis scored 59 international goals , with four goals against Serbia on September 21, 2011 and three goals against Albania on September 26, 2013.
Coaching career
On February 21, 2017 Melis became a trainer at the Feyenoord Soccer Schools in Rotterdam .
