The 1950 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final was the 63rd All-Ireland Final and the deciding match of the 1950 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, an inter-county Gaelic football tournament for the top teams in Ireland.

Mayo snatched a freak goal with five minutes remaining after Seán Flanagan charged down a Seán Boyle clearance.[1]

The referee for the 1950 final was Simon Deignan, who played for Cavan in the 1947 and 1948 finals.[2]

This was the first of two consecutive All-Ireland football titles won by Mayo.[3] They have not won an All-Ireland football title since 1951.
