Elisabetta Vignotto (born 13 January 1954), nicknamed "Betty", is an Italian former footballer who played as a striker.

Club career

At club level Vignotto represented numerous different clubs in Serie A. In 1986 she told la Repubblica: "So far I've changed teams ten times. But it's not that I'm capricious. The teams broke up."^[1] According to the Dizionario del Calcio Italiano, she scored 467 goals in 461 Serie A appearances.^[2]

She was the chairman (Italian: presidente, lit. 'president') of A.S.D. Reggiana Calcio Femminile (and later A.S.D. Sassuolo Calcio Femminile).

International career

Vignotto reportedly scored 107 goals in 109 games for the Italian national team.^[3] FIFA suggest she made 110 appearances.^[4] The Italian Football Federation (FIGC) website does not support this, suggesting figures of 97 goals in 95 national team games.^[5]

Vignotto held the goalscoring record for women's international matches until May 1999, when she was surpassed by Mia Hamm, who scored her 108th goal for the United States.^[6]

She was inducted into the Italian Football Hall of Fame in 2017.^[7]
