Nadine Marejke Angerer (born 10 November 1978) is a German football coach and player who is the former goalkeeping player-coach for Portland Thorns of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL).

Since making her debut for the Germany women's national football team in August 1996, Angerer won a total of 146 caps.
When Rottenberg was injured before the 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup, Angerer took over as first choice and kept a clean sheet in every round as Germany won the tournament.

While playing at the UEFA Women's Euro 2013 Angerer announced her signing on a free transfer with the Brisbane Roar in Australia's W-League[12] and further plans for a move to an as yet unspecified team in the NWSL by January 2014.
