Peter Duffy goal the difference as Cuala reach maiden Leinster final
Cuala (Dublin) 1-10 Tullamore (Offaly) 0-10
Cuala, once the high kings of Leinster club hurling, are through to their first ever provincial football final.
Peter Duffy, part of the Dublin panel earlier this year, struck the early goal that ultimately separated the sides at Parnell Park, sending Cuala through to next Saturday's final.
County star Con O'Callaghan impressed too, scoring four important points for the Austin O'Malley managed side who will face Ardee St Mary's at Croke Park in the decider.
A burst of five Cuala points in a row between the 43rd and 52nd minutes set the first-time champions on the road to victory, just their second ever in Leinster.
