Galway's strategy to utilize their numerical advantage effectively allowed them to dominate the full-back line and maintain possession, ultimately concluding the game on a high note and halting Cork's pursuit of a third consecutive championship.
A replay looked inevitable when Orlaith Cahalane found the back of the net, but it's almost fitting that Carrie Dolan's free won it for the Tribeswomen - she finishes the day with 0-7 to her name.
