The 2019 Notre Dame Fighting Irish men's soccer team represented University of Notre Dame during the 2019 NCAA Division I men's soccer season. It was the program's 42nd season.[1] It was the program's 7th season competing in the Atlantic Coast Conference. The Fighting Irish were led by head coach Chad Riley, in his second year.

The 2018 Notre Dame men's soccer team finished the season with an 11–7–3 overall record and a 4–3–1 ACC record. The Fighting Irish were seeded fifth–overall in the 2018 ACC Men's Soccer Tournament, where they lost to eventual champions Louisville in the quarterfinals.

As the seventh–overall seed in the tournament, Notre Dame defeated Michigan and ACC foe Virginia before falling to Indiana in the quarterfinals.

At the end of the season, one Fighting Irish soccer player was selected in the 2019 MLS SuperDraft: Tommy McCabe.[2]
