Kerry defeated Mayo by 4–15 to 3–5 to secure their 34th All-Ireland Senior Football title. Kerry raced into a 2–4 to no-score lead inside 13 minutes; although Mayo responded with three first-half goals, the Kingdom remained in control and pulled decisively clear after the interval. Micheál Ó Muircheartaigh’s commentary captures the extraordinary burst of early goals and Kerry’s commanding march to a second championship in three seasons.
