The final was contested by St Finbarr's of Cork and Rathnure of Wexford, with St Finbarr's winning by 2-7 to 0-9.[1]

The All-Ireland final between St Finbarr's and Rathnure was a unique occasion as it was the first ever championship meeting between the two teams. It remains their only championship meeting. St Finbarr's were hoping to become only the third team to win a second All-Ireland title. Rathnure were appearing in their third All-Ireland final having never won the title.

A gale-force wind hindered the St Finbarr's challenge in the opening half, allowing Rathnure to take an 0-8 to 0-1 interval lead. Ten minutes from the full-time whistle Barry Wiley scored an equalizer that gave "the Barr's" an increased impetus. A Jimmy Barry-Murphy goal from a rebound settled the game as St Finbarr's claimed a four-point victory.

The All-Ireland victory for St Finbarr's was the second of their two championship titles. They were the third Cork representatives to win two All-Ireland titles.
