Olivia Christina O'Toole (born 25 February 1971) is an Irish former association footballer who played as a forward. She made her debut for the Republic of Ireland national team in 1991 and captained the team before retiring in 2009. With 132 caps she has made the second most appearances for the Irish women's national team. O'Toole's record of 54 international goals was equalled by Robbie Keane in September 2012.
A three time International Player of the Year, the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) described O'Toole as: "Renowned for her unpredictability and a whole range of trickery, Olivia's eye for goal and magical left foot sets her out as one of Ireland's greatest ever talents at any level."[2]
