Robert Zabica (born April 9, 1964 in Spearwood, Western Australia) is an Australian former football player of Croatian descent. Zabica played as a goalkeeper. Zabica represented the Australian national football team 28 times in 'A' international matches and also represented Western Australia.

Playing career

Zabica started his career with Cockburn City before joining Adelaide City for seven seasons, winning National Soccer League championships in 1992 and 1994. He played for Australia in the qualifiers for the 1994 FIFA World Cup finals, losing narrowly to Argentina. A nagging knee injury forced his international retirement, but he made a comeback in 1995 with Dalmatinac with whom he won the D'Orsogna Cup. He made his State debut at the age of 31, captaining the side that beat West Ham United in 1995, and went on to play a further five times for Western Australia. He returned to national league level in 1997, making seven appearances for Perth Glory and taking his career tally to 202 games. He had a three-match spell in England with Bradford City in late 1997 and returned to Perth to play for Bayswater City SC, Inglewood United and Fremantle City.

He has two sons called Kristopher and Ryan Zabica.Fact|date=August 2008
