Cork gives Galway an historic kicking

Cork 2-13 Galway 0-6

It was their first national title at senior level, and the fact that it was achieved at the expense of All-Ireland champions Galway makes it extra special.

Apart from the opening 15 minutes when the sides were level three times, there was never any doubt about the outcome after Valerie Mulcahy scored Cork’s opening goal in the 22nd minute.
