Tommy Ryan(born 1967) is an Irish former Gaelic footballer. Born in Termon, Donegal, he attended St Eunan's College.

1992 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final
The 1992 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final was the deciding match of the 1992 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, an inter-county Gaelic football tournament for the top teams in Ireland. The 105th All-Ireland SFC final, the event was held at Croke Park on 20 September 1992, contested by Dublin and Donegal. Donegal won the match by 0–18 to 0–14, with man of the match Manus Boyle scoring nine points (including one off the crossbar) and James McHugh beating Dublin goalkeeper John O'Leary early in the game, only for his strike on goal to also hit the crossbar in front of Hill 16. Dublin's Charlie Redmond also missed a penalty in an eventful game. Dublin entered the game as heavy favourites to take the Sam Maguire Cup over the River Liffey. Instead, Donegal seized it from their grasp and took the cup with them to the north-west. The surprise outcome was hailed as one of the most unbelievable shocks seen in championship football at the time. Wild scenes wer ...
