Carl Veart (born May 21, 1970 in Whyalla, South Australia, Australia) is a former Australian football (soccer) player who last played as a striker for Adelaide United.

He previously played in England for Sheffield United, Crystal Palace and Millwall. During his time at Crystal Palace he earned the affectionate title of "goal machine". He scored the first ever goal in the newly formed Hyundai A-League against the Newcastle United Jets in a 1-0 opening day victory.

He made his debut for the Socceroos in 1992 and played 18 'A' matches, scoring 7 goals.

Veart retired from football on 23 May 2007, after Adelaide United's match against Vietnamese team Gach Dong Tam Long An in the AFC Champions League.[1]
