| Angela Iannotta (born 22 March 1971) is an Italian Australian soccer coach and former player. As a forward, she represented Australia women's national association football team in the 1995 and 1999 FIFA Women's World Cups and played club football in Australia, Italy and Japan. Iannotta's equaliser against China in 1995 was Australia's first ever World Cup goal.
Iannotta played alongside Italy's Carolina Morace in Agliana's 1994–95 Scudetto winning team. In 1996–97 Iannotta joined Cheryl Salisbury and Sunni Hughes at Panasonic Bambina of Japan's L. League. Two broken legs, sustained seven months apart, derailed Iannotta's progress in Japan and she returned to Italy. In 1998 she accepted a place on the Australian Institute of Sport Football Program, ahead of the following year's World Cup in the United States.
In July 2023, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's digital sports journalist Samantha Lewis complained that footage of Australia's first Women's World Cup goal, scored by Iannotta, is not freely available but is "buried on a database at FIFA headquarters" which would cost "an unfathomable amount of money" to officially license.
