Lionel Arthur Louch (4 July 1888 – 1 February 1967) was an English amateur footballer who played as a center-forward for Portsmouth, Brentford and England Amateurs.[1] He was a member of Great Britain's squad for the football tournament at the 1908 Summer Olympics, but he did not play in any matches.[2]
Club career
Born in
Christmas Day of 1908.[1] He spent two seasons at Orient scoring 10 goals in 38 League and Cup games. Louch then played for Brentford and Southend United before the outbreak of the war when he joined the London Regiment but was pensioned out after just less than one year service.[1]
International career
In 1908, Louch made his debut for
Sweden on 8 September 1908, scoring in a 6-1 win. He was then part of the English amateur team that represented Great Britain at the 1908 Olympic football tournament, but he failed to play in any matches as the team won gold.[1] After a 6-year hiatus, he played another game for the team on 7 February 1914 against Wales, netting four goals in a 9–1 victory, and later that month, he scored a hat-trick in a 7–0 win over Belgium.[3][1]
