Armagh come out on top of thrilling battle with Tyrone to earn Ulster Final spot

Armagh have defeated Tyrone 0-23 to 0-22 in their Ulster Senior Football Championship Semi-Final clash at St. Tiernach’s Park this evening.

Kieran McGeaney’s side led 0-11 to 0-08 at the interval and raced into a six-point lead mid-way through the second period.
