Ron Lord (25 July 1929 – 8 April 2024) was a Australian international football (soccer) goalkeeper during the 1950s, appearing for the host nation in the 1956 Olympic Games staged in Melbourne. Lord played well in the defeat of the Japanese side, but the Australians were well-defeated by India where Neville D'Souza scored the first and, so far, only hat-trick by an Asian football team in either a FIFA World Cup or Olympic Games tournament.
