Dublin were the better team in the first half, but only led by a point to no score at the break. In the second half, Doreen Rogers scored a goal for Dublin, but Renee Fitzgerald replied with a Cork goal and had another disallowed near the end. The game was drawn.

The replay was played in Croke Park three weeks later, and Dublin led 2–1 to 0–0 at the break, including a controversial Doreen Rogers goal that was argued to have been scored from inside the small rectangle. Dublin maintained their advantage to the end and prevented a Cork four-in-a-row.[1]
