Roman Grzegorz Ogaza (17 November 1952 – 5 March 2006) was a Polish footballer who played as a striker.
His first club was Górnik Lędziny (1965–1968). He then represented Górnik Zabrze (1968–1970), Szombierki Bytom (1970–1975 and 1978–1983), French teams such as RC Lens (1983–1984) and Olympique Alès (1984–1986), US Forbach (1987–1991) and SG Marienau (1991) and Belgian Royal Francs Borains (1986).
He clinched Polish championship with Szombierki Bytom in 1980. His debut with the Poland national team was in Port-au-Prince on 13 April 1974 against Haiti. Ogaza's last appearance with the national team was against Portugal on 23 February 1981. Ogaza played 21 matches for the Poland national team, scoring 6 goals.[1] With many great players to choose from, Kazimierz Górski did not pick Ogaza for the 1974 World Cup in West Germany, but 2 years later, Ogaza was a member of the Poland Olympic team which brought home silver from Montreal in 1976.
Ogaza died in Forbach, near Metz, in March 2006, at the age of 53.
