Cork were victorious, achieving their first All-Ireland Senior Football Championship title since 1990.[7][8] It was their seventh title in total.[9] This made them the sixth team in two decades to win both the league and championship in the same season.[10] It was the first time since the 2002 final – when Armagh won their first ever title – that a team other than Kerry or Tyrone were declared champions.[11][12]
This was the last occasion on which iconic broadcaster Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh commentated on a final to a global audience, having announced his retirement days earlier after a six-decade career.[4]
The game was watched by the highest television audience for an All-Ireland Football Final in five years.[13]
