Walter Alfred Bahr (April 1, 1927 – June 18, 2018) was an American professional soccer player, considered one of the greatest ever in the United States.

"[citation needed] After participating in the 1948 Summer Olympics,[3] Bahr turned professional and helped his club win ASL titles in 1950, 1951, 1953, and 1955.

[5] As professional soccer players at that time made relatively little money, Bahr also was a high school teacher during his playing years.

[1][8] Bahr was featured in the 2009 soccer documentary A Time for Champions discussing the U.S. upset victory over England in the 1950 World Cup.

Bahr was portrayed by Wes Bentley in the 2005 movie The Game of Their Lives, which has been distributed in DVD under the title "Miracle Match."

The last living member of the 1950 U.S. World Cup team, Bahr died on June 18, 2018, in Boalsburg, Pennsylvania, from complications related to a broken hip.
