Alf Kåre Tveit (born 26 April 1967) is a former footballer who played from 1988 to 1993 for Viking FK, where he won both the league and cup championship. He was selected for the national squad in a match against Scotland, but never got his first cap.
Tveit got the nickname fygaren for his celebrations after scoring, where he stretched his arms out ran in a zig-zag movement. He is also remembered for a controversial situation in a match against Vard in 1988. In overtime, he headed the ball out of the hands of the goalkeeper, rounded him and was tackled.
