Georg Schmidt (born 7 April 1927) is an Austrian football (soccer) former manager.

Most notably he was co-manager of the Austria national football team in the 1982 FIFA World Cup, with Felix Latzke, and was thus credited with infamy for the Shame of Gijón, a somewhat dubious 0-1 loss to West Germany.
