The All-Ireland final was a unique occasion as it was the first ever championship meeting between Sarsfield's and Kilmallock. It remains their only championship meeting at this level. Both sides were hoping to make history by winning their first All-Ireland title.

Despite conceding goals at the beginning of each half, the Galway champions secured victory in the closing stages. A Joe Cooney free ended up in the net five minutes from the end.

Sarsfields' victory secured their first All-Ireland title. They became the 16th club to win the All-Ireland title, while they were the third Galway representatives to claim the ultimate prize.
