Eoin Murchan (born 1996) is an Irish Gaelic footballer who plays for the Na Fianna club and at senior level for the Dublin county team.[1]

Murchan did not start the 2019 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final, which finished in a draw.[2] He was then named from the start in the replay and scored a goal straight from the second-half throw-in by racing straight for the Kerry goal, hitting the ball into the right corner of the net.[3] Joe Brolly later described Murchan's goal as "arguably the most important moment in the history of Dublin football".[4] Murchan received The Throw-In's final Rising Star award of the competition as a result.[5]

Murchan is a pianist.[6]
