List of All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship final goalscorers
 |
The following is a partial list of goalscorers in All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship finals. See List of FIFA World Cup final goalscorers a similar list but in soccer not hurling.[clarification needed]
Scoring in Gaelic games: Most scores are points but there are goals too.
For a team to score more than three goals in a final is a rarity, occurring in 2000 and 2010. When Lar Corbett (for Tipp, 2010) scored a hat-trick, only Eddie O'Brien (for Cork, 1970) had done it in a final.[1] But the 2013 replay had Clare scoring five goals, including a Shane O'Donnell hat-trick.
The last final to finish goalless was in 2020.

They are just the second team in the last 20 finals to score more than three goals (Kilkenny in 2000 against Offaly are the other) and their 4–17 is the biggest total ever scored against the Cats in a 70-minute final (the 5–17 for Tipp in 1971 was in an 80-minute decider). Lar Corbett joins Eddie O'Brien who hit three goals for Cork in 1970 against Wexford as the only hurler in modern times to score a hat-trick in a final.
