Michael Murphy led by example as Donegal defeated Tyrone at Kingspan Breffni on Saturday evening.

The experienced Murphy contributed important scores and also made some excellent catches for Declan Bonner's team.

Dara McVeety was prominent throughout as Cavan advanced to a first Ulster SFC Final since 2001.

McVeety contributed four points and was an influential figure for Mickey Graham's improving outfit.

Paul Mannion rifled over seven points from play as Dublin proved too strong for Kildare at Croke Park.

The Kilmacud Crokes clubman was a key performer for Jim Gavin's team, who now face Meath in the provincial decider on June 23.
