Noone strikes late as Galway crowned All-Ireland champs
Eva Noone etched her name in the Galway football history books with the match-wining point as the Tribeswomen claimed a first TG4 All-Ireland ladies SFC title since 2004.
Eva Noone's match-winning point secured Galway's first TG4 All-Ireland ladies SFC title since 2004, ending Kerry's 13th consecutive title reign. Leanne Coen's second goal in the 54th minute shifted the momentum in Galway's favor. The game's climax came in the final seconds when Kerry captain Síofra O Shea's two-point attempt was ruled out for a square-ball infringement, denying Kerry their 13th title.
Galway's cautious approach in the wind and their low-scoring game ensured a memorable finish to an otherwise unremarkable match.
