St Gall's became the first Antrim club to win the All-Ireland Club football championship as they claimed a 0-13 to 1-5 victory over Killmurry-Ibrickane of Clare in the Croke Park decider.

Despite conceding a goal in the opening minute to Stephen Moloney, St Gall's controlled the opening half, and two points each from brothers Kevin and Ciaran McGourty saw them ease into a 0-8 to 1-1 interval lead.

The Belfast side continued to dominate after the restart with Kevin Niblock turning in a man-of-the-match performance at full forward and contributing two points.

Ciaran McGourty brought his tally to three, while Moloney hit two points at the other end for an outclassed Kilmurry side.
