They will now meet Roanmore at the semi-final stage next Sunday 26 September in Walsh Park. Dungarvan will be bidding to reach the final for the first time since 2012 while opponents Roanmore, victors against Lismore in last night’s quarter-final, last featured in a decider in 1990.
The other semi-final will be contested next Saturday by rivals Ballygunner and Mount Sion in Walsh Park at 4.30pm. Champions Ballygunner beat Fourmilewater in yesterday’s quarter-final while Mount Sion overcame Passage.
In Limerick, last year’s finalists Doon booked their place in the semi-final stage this season with a 2-18 to 1-16 success against Ahane in today’s decisive group game.
The victory for Doon ensures they top Group 2 of Section A of the senior championship and will progress directly to the semi-finals, joining Na Piarsaigh, who beat them convincingly in last year’s decider.
Doon needed to mount a recovery to triumph as they trailed 1-10 to 0-6 at half-time, Limerick All-Ireland winner Tom Morrissey bagging Ahane’s goal.

A Josh Ryan goal helped Doon go two points clear by the second-half water break and another Limerick winner hit the second goal, Pat Ryan clinching victory.
The result means Patrickswell join Kilmallock and South Liberties in the quarter-finals. The line-up there will be completed by the winners of tonight’s game between Adare and Kildimo-Pallaskenry, with the two fixtures set to take place on the weekend of 2-3 October.
