The 1990 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final was the 103rd All-Ireland Final and the deciding match of the 1990 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, an inter-county Gaelic football tournament for the top teams in Ireland.

Cork won a two-in-a-row, a feat not repeated until Kerry won successive titles in 2006 and 2007. Teddy McCarthy became the first and only player to win hurling and football medals in the same year.[1] Cork won their sixth All-Ireland football title, but would have to wait twenty years for their seventh.[2][3]
