Karl Bertil Emanuel Nordahl (26 July 1917 – 1 December 1998) was a Swedish footballer who played as a midfielder. He was also a football manager.

Playing career

He played for Degerfors IF and Atalanta B.C. He won the gold medal at the 1948 Summer Olympics, along with his brothers Knut and Gunnar Nordahl.

Managerial career

After his playing career, he coached Örebro SK and IK Brage.
