Cuala (Dublin) 3-14

Errigal Ciaran (Tyrone) 1-16

CUALA HAVE BECOME only the second club to win All-Ireland titles in hurling and football after withstanding a heroic second-half fightback from Errigal Ciarán in Croke Park.

The Dublin side, who just won their first senior county championship this season, blitzed their Tyrone opponents by 3-9 to 0-5 in the first half to build a considerable lead. Errigal Ciarán reduced the gap to three points in the second half after a superb rally which included a brilliant Peter Harte goal. But their effort just fell short as Conor Groarke provided the late insurance score for Cuala.
