In 2007, Evoga had this teaser image for an otherwise unannounced “Evolution Soccer Club Edition”. web.archive.org/web/2007082514

Undumped has no further info on it. Was it location-tested? Was it never otherwise shown publicly? I’d love to know! mamedev.emulab.it/undumped/ind

This would have been a sequel to Evoga's (released) 2001 game Evolution Soccer.

Co-developed with Japan's Brezzasoft (made up of ex-SNK staff, who later rejoined SNK Playmore), Evolution Soccer's basically a spiritual successor to Neo Geo Cup '98 with a bit of a more KOF-style aesthetic. It honestly looks like a good game! youtu.be/_4nbWoJipTY

It's also one of only two games made for Brezzasoft's Crystal System arcade hardware, which they intended to be a NeoGeo successor. Presumably those ambitions got cut short when Brezzasoft rejoined SNK Playmore. Evoga's next game was also a NeoGeo game rather than a Crystal System game, and co-developed with a different ex-SNK offshoot.

Incidentally, that same Evoga website teases a sequel to Rage of the Dragons (their second game) sometime in 2007. Nothing more was ever seen or said than this one teaser image on their homepage. I'd love to know what they had plans. awoo.space/media/lwAg9MFPHP_I6

Rage of the Dragons itself never got a home port thanks to Evoga's ca 2002 bankruptcy. I'm not sure what its legal status was at that point, or who owned the rights.
