Evald Tipner (13 March 1906 – 18 July 1947) was Estonian football, ice hockey and bandy player.[2] He was capped 66 times for Estonian national football team, 7 times for bandy national team and once for ice hockey team. Tipner was also a good track and field athlete.

Some sources[which?] report him as the first goalscorer in the history of World Cup preliminary competition, having scored what would be an own goal for Sweden against Estonia 7 minutes into the game, on 11 June 1933, in Stockholm. Some other sources[which?] consider this was not an own goal, and that it was actually scored by Swedish captain Knut Kroon.
