Les Frères Molina is a Gregahouvian association football club based in Molina city of the Porte Nouvelle protectorate. Molina competes in the Premyer Liga, the top flight of Gregahouvian football. The club's home stadium is La Tanière, located on the southeastern end of Molina, where the club is based.
In 1996, the club became the first Porte Nouvelais club to win the Premyer Liga, winning 20 matches and amassing 68 points. The club has a rivalry with fellow Nouvelais side AS Porte Nouvelle, and the match between the two clubs is commonly referred to as the Traversile, an abbreviation of the French term for "cross-island".
History
The club was originally founded in 1963 as Club Sportif des Frères Molinais (English: Sporting Club of the Brothers of Molina) as the outfit of a local multi-sports club in the southeastern quadrant of the city. It originally played in the semiprofessional Ligue 1 Porte Nouvelle and participated in the league from its founding in 1963 until 1985, when the league was disbanded along with the club's addition into the current Gregahouvian Premyer Liga. Despite entering the Premyer Liga in 1985, the club spent most of the 1980s and early 1990s in the second tier of Gregahouvian association football, the Toroy Liga. However, the team was again promoted to the top flight in 1991 and has remained in the Premyer Liga since.
Since the club's entrance into the Gregahouvian football system, Les Frères Molina has won four Premyer Liga titles in addition to a single Toroy Liga title, most recently winning the top flight in 2009. It is historically the most successful Nouvelais Premyer Liga club of all time. Today, Molina remains the only club from Porte Nouvelle to win more than one championship, and has one of the largest fan bases of Nouvelais football clubs.
Championships
The 1996 Molina team became the first team from Porte Nouvelle to win the Gregahouvian Premyer Liga, winning 20 matches and securing a championship over Severskiy in the finals to win the trophy. Manager Arkadiy Kipçak would win two additional championships for the club in 1999 and 2001 before retiring after the 2000-01 season, leaving Les Frères Molina as the only Porte Nouvelais side to win multiple championships. A fourth trophy would be later added in 2009.
