Benelucky
A lion with a devil's tail and human hands. A lion appears on the crest
of the Dutch national federation, and the Belgian national team is
historically nicknamed "Red Devils". The name Benelucky, is a
portmanteau of "Benelux", the term for the three nations of Belgium, the
Netherlands and Luxembourg, and the ending "-lucky" wishing the
participating teams "good luck". It wore football boots and held a
football under its left arm. One of the most striking characteristics of
Benelucky was its multicoloured lions mane which incorporated the
colours of both the Belgian and Dutch national flags.
