The All-Ireland final was a unique occasion as it was the first-ever championship meeting between Sarsfields and Toomevara. It remains their only championship meeting in the All-Ireland series. Sarsfields were hoping to become the first team to retain the title while Toomevara were hoping to make their own history by winning their first All-Ireland title.
The free-taking of Aidan Donoghue was key to Sarsfields' success. Goals in the 13th, 29th and 44th minutes gave Toomevara a three-point lead, however, Sarsfields equalized with a 65th-minute goal from Michael Kenny after a Joe Cooney pass. Sarsfields added two more points for the win.
Sarsfields victory allowed them to become the first team to retain the All-Ireland Club title.
