Pre-match
Kerry were the reigning champions, having completed the second senior four-in-a-row in 1932, following the Wexford team of 1915–1918. However, Kerry did not qualify for the 1933 decider, having been knocked out of the competition at the semi-final stage.Seán Moran https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/gaelic-games/gaelic-football/se%C3%A1n-moran-will-time-be-on-dublin-s-side-once-more-1.4014138 Will time be on Dublin's side once more?

Summary
Cavan became the first Ulster county to win an All-Ireland SFC, with first-half goals by Louis Blessing, and "Son" Magee. A record crowd attended the game, with about 5,000 more locked out.High Ball magazine, issue #6, 1998.
Galway may have lost, but they were regarded as a force for the future; this proved true as the following year they won their second All-Ireland SFC title and took the Sam Maguire Cup back to the west for the first time.Tom Kenny https://www.advertiser.ie/galway/article/38701/the-men-who-first-brought-sam-to-galway The men who first brought Sam to Galway Galway Advertiser 14 April 2011 14 April 2011 In 1933 Cavan beat Galway in the final by 2 – 5 to 1 – 4, but in defeat the Galway team were hailed as a major force for the future, a prediction that turned out to be accurate as they beat Dublin the following year by 3 – 5 to 1 – 9, the first Galway team to wear the maroon and white colours and the first Galway team to bring the Sam Maguire west. The crowd at the game numbered 36,143.
