The All-Ireland final was, for the first time, contested by two teams, neither of which were their respective provincial champions. Cork were defeated in the Munster final while Kilkenny were defeated in the Leinster semi-final. The All-Ireland final was decided for only the second time in history with both sides failing to score a goal, the first being in the 1999 final.
