Igor Nganga (born 14 April 1987) is a Congolese former football player.

N'Ganga had a brief spell in the Swiss Super League with BSC Young Boys.[1]

He attracted media attention in November 2014 as the result of a penalty incident during a game against FC Zürich. Zürich were awarded a penalty which was taken by Amine Chermiti. Goalkeeper Joël Mall saved the initial shot but it rebounded back to Chermiti who shot again, but Mall saved the second shot as well. Chermiti then had a third shot at goal but this time it was acrobatically hooked off the line by N'Ganga.[2]
