Cork 1990 Double Champions

In 1990, Cork achieved one of the rarest feats in GAA history — winning both the Liam McCarthy and the Sam Maguire in the one season.

First, the hurlers defeated Galway in the All-Ireland final, with Cork’s experience and sharp finishing proving too strong on the day.

Then, only weeks later, the footballers overcame Meath to claim Sam Maguire and complete the famous double.

The moment was made even more legendary by Teddy McCarthy, who became a cult hero by starting in both All-Ireland finals, a unique achievement that may never be repeated
