List of All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final goalscorers
The following is a list of goalscorers in All-Ireland Senior Football Championship finals. See List of FIFA World Cup final goalscorers a similar list but in soccer not Gaelic football
Scoring in Gaelic games: Most scores are points but there are goals too.
The last final to finish goalless was in 2022.
Dean Rock holds the record for the fastest goal scored in the history of All-Ireland SFC finals, after sending the ball past David Clarke directly from the throw-in of the 2020 final, breaking Kerryman Garry McMahon's record which had stood since the 1962 final.[1]
