Derry 1-14 : Cork 2-08

Cork have returned to the big
time for a first final since the glory days of a few
years previously. Billy Morgan has changed the team,
bringing in new talent but faces his biggest challenge
of the season in the coming force that is Derry.
Fancied by many to take the county's first All-Ireland
in 1992, Eamonn Coleman's side have negotiated the
always perilous Ulster championship and beaten Dublin
by a point after a titanic struggle in the All-Ireland
semi-final. "Bring Samuel back to Londonderry," read
some signs back in Derry. Easier said than done.
