Armagh will take on Connacht champions Galway.[3]
If the game is a draw after 70 minutes, 20 minutes of extra time is to be played. If the game is still level, the final will be replayed on 3 August 2024.[4]
Background
edit- Armagh are aiming to win their second All-Ireland; their first was in 2002. They were also beaten finalists in 1953, 1977 and 2003.
- Galway are aiming to win a tenth All-Ireland; this would make them only the third county to reach double figures in the all-time rankings. Their last All-Ireland was in 2001; they were beaten finalists in 2022.
- This final is the sixth to be contested by county teams from Connacht and Ulster: the others were 1925 (Galway beat Cavan), 1943 (Roscommon beat Cavan), 1948 (Cavan beat Mayo), 2012 (Donegal beat Mayo) and 2021 (Tyrone beat Mayo).[5]
