1912 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final

Match

Antrim won the toss, and the game began when Dublin Lord Mayor Lorcan Sherlock threw in the ball.

Louth led 0–2 to 0–1 at half-time. Antrim, who had beaten Kerry in the semi-final, were two points in front during the second half, but Louth came back strongly to win a second All-Ireland SFC title by five points.

Antrim's team included five Louth natives, among them captain John Coburn from Kilcurry. The gate receipts totalled £510, then a record for the Gaelic Athletic Association.
