Oswaldo Vizcarrondo (born 25 April 1984) is a Venezuelan footballer who currently plays as a defender for Club Olimpo in Argentina following a August 2011 transfer from Deportivo Anzoátegui in Venezuela. Vizcarrondo also plays for the Venezuela national football team.

Easily recognized with his long, curly hair, Vizcarrondo plays in central defense and excels in aerial battles, scoring seven goals for his country. He attracted much attention during the 2011 Copa America, when his determined tackling in defense played a major role in Venezuela's unprecedented run to the tournament semifinals.

On November 15, 2011, Vizcarrondo scored the only goal in a 1-0 victory over Bolivia, a result that lifted Venezuela into a tie for first place in the World Cup qualifying standings.
