Tyrone's Galbally Pearses proved that goals win games in their four-point win over Dunmore MacHales in St Loman's in Mullingar on Saturday afternoon.
Dunmore got off to the worst possible start conceding an early goal but Damian Reddington's finish installed hope and further points from Shane McGrath and Dylan Brady had the County Champions three points to the good only to concede two further goals and trail by two at Half Time.
Dunmore was the better team for most of the Second Half and not only had closed the gap but in fact, had gone a point clear with three minutes remaining before a fourth goal from Daniel Kerr broke Dunmore's hearts and booked their place in the final against Kerry's Rathmore.
