Tony Gustavsson (born 14 August 1973) is a Swedish professional football manager and former player who was most recently the head coach of the Australia women's national team.
He is best known for his managerial success in women's football, leading Tyresö FF to the 2014 UEFA Women's Champions League Final, helping the United States women's national team to two world championships in 2015 and 2019 as an assistant, as well as helping Australia (nicknamed the "Matildas") to their highest finishes at the Olympic Games in 2020 and the FIFA Women's World Cup in 2023 on home soil. However, the Matildas' poor performance after the 2024 Summer Olympics will reportedly cause Gustavsson to be sacked.[2]
