Dromore edged out Coalisland 0-8 to 0-6 in Friday's WJ Dolan Tyrone SFC replay at Dunmoyle to book a quarter-final date with Errigal Ciaran.

The winners led 0-4 to 0-3 at the break with Colm McCullagh among their scorers and ex-Tyrone panelist Peter Donnelly on target for Coalisland.

The match remained tight in the second half but Coalisland's Niall Kerr then received a straight red card.

A late Eoin McCusker point helped Dromore shade the verdict.

McCullagh, Sean O'Neill, Ronan McNabb and Ryan Cunningham scored Dromore's points in the first half with Plunkett Kane and Donnelly on target for Coalisland.

Dromore also had to endure concerted Coalisland pressure late in the first half.

Two Dermot Thorntion frees brought Coalisland back to within a point midway through the second half but they then suffered the blow of Kerr's dismissal.

In a rainstorm, Dromore held out, clinching the tie with McCusker's late point.
