It was only the second time in the GAA's history that two teams from the same province had contested an All-Ireland Football Final. Kerry won by 10 points.

Vincent Hogan wrote on two of the Kerry goals in the Irish Independent: "Cork gave them two beauties. It was like finding a burglar in your house and helping him to bring the boxes down the stairs"; in 2022, Martin Breheny listed it among "five of the worst" All-Ireland SFC finals since 1972.[1]
