Galway deliver late telling blows

Galway 1-15 Cork 0-14

The victory marked Galway’s first appearance in the championship while Cork were playing their third game and chasing their third All-Ireland title in a row.

Cork looked to be on course when John Hughes’ magnificent point from midfield put his side three clear with eight minutes to go. But a lively Galway side were level for the seventh time with a minute to go, and scored 1-1 without reply in injury time for a victory they just about deserved.
