Cork were appearing in their first final in over a decade, while Meath were lining out in their second successive All-Ireland SFC decider. The first half was a dour, tense affair riddled with mistakes. Cork surged ahead into a three-point lead, while Meath only registered one point in the first half after being held scoreless for 27 minutes. In the second half, Meath were a transformed team. In his column in The Irish Times, Paddy Downey wrote: "Their second half transformation was so unexpected that it seems incredible. Nevertheless, it was a rally which for grit and guts and spirit surpassed anything I have seen in a final." Six minutes after the restart, Terry Kearns slipped unnoticed behind the Cork backline to punch Matt Kerrigan's centre to the net from 5 yards out. Inexperience cost Cork. Their last-minute goal chance was pulled back because Con O'Sullivan's short free to Flor Hayes was deemed too short by the referee.http://www.irishtimes.com/sport/no-rest-for-the-boys-of-67-1.85568 No rest for the boys of 67 Irish Times 12 September 1996 7 August 2015 Seán Kilfeather Meath's All-Ireland SFC victory was their first since 1954.
