Template:Short description Template:Infobox football biography
Victoriano Santos Iriarte (2 November 1902 – 10 November 1968), nicknamed "El Canario" (The Canary), was a Uruguayan football forward, member of the Uruguay national team that won the first-ever World Cup in 1930, and of Racing Club de Montevideo at the club level.
Iriarte, an outside left, played all four of Uruguay's matches in the 1930 World Cup and scored two goals; one in the semifinal against Yugoslavia and one in the 68th minute of the final match to give Uruguay a 3–2 lead in their comeback win against Argentina.
