The Final
Angela Downey contributed 2-5 of Kilkenny’s total of 3-10 in the final.[3][4][5][6][7] Highlight of the match was one solo run by Angela Downey when she weaved her way around four Dublin defenders before scoring a goal. It enabled Kilkenny to lead 1-5 to 1-4 at half-time. The deciding factor in the first half was the midfield domination of Kilkenny’s Deirdre Malone, Anna Wheland and Marina Downey. Angela Downey scored three minutes after the restart, and it was the highlight of fifteen minutes of constant Kilkenny pressure. A goal from Louise Lynch after 42 minutes gave Dublin confidence but Kiklkenny regained their composure and Breda Holmes scored a match-clinching goal three minutes later.
