[1][2][3][4][5][6] Cork led Dublin 2-1 to 1-1 at half time in the All Ireland semi-final at The Mardyke then stretched their lead to 3-4 to 1-2, before Una O'Connor and Mary Sherlock responded with goals and Sherlock added an equalising point three minutes from the end.
Two goals from Una O'Connor and a third from Bríd Keenan at the start of the second half secured the championship for Dublin.
Agnes Hourigan wrote in the Irish Press: The scoreline did scant justice to the see saw nature of the exchanges.
Far greater craft, combination and cohesion in attack, together with a back line that made only one mistake in the full fifty minutes, despite long spells of Antrim pressure, gave Dublin the title after a scintillating game.
Una O’Connor, who won her tenth All Ireland medal, roamed well outfield from her normal full-forward post, and, too mobile for opposing full-back Moya Forde, distributed the bal magnificently to a brilliant pair of corner-forwards Judy Doyle and Bríd Keenan, whose well taken scores made all the difference.
