Angelo Mattea ({{IPA|it|ˈandʒelo matˈtɛːa}}; 21 October 1892 – 1960) was an Italian football player and manager from Santhià in the Province of Vercelli. He played club football as a forward or midfielder for several teams in Italy including Casale, which he helped to win the 1913–14 scudetto, and Juventus. He also played for the Italy national team five different times between 1914 and 1921, scoring once.

Mattea currently holds the record for being the oldest player ever to score their first Serie A goal, a feat which he accomplished at the age of 38 years and 7 days, for Casale, in a 5–1 away loss to Ambrosiana on 28 October 1930.{{cite web |url=https://www.calciomercato.com/news/fiorentina-ribery-da-record-45263 |title=Fiorentina, Ribery da record |publisher=www.calciomercato.com |language=it |date=22 September 2019 |access-date=23 September 2019 }}{{cite web |url=http://calcio-seriea.net/tabellini/1930/309/ |title=Risultati Serie A 30-31 |publisher=calcio-seriea.net |language=it |access-date=23 September 2019 }}{{#tag:ref|Although Mattea had previously played and scored in previous editions of the top division of Italian football, Serie A was only established during the 1929–30 season|name="Serie A"|group="nb"}}
