Ballinderry won't discover the identity of their Derry SFC final opponents until next Sunday after Slaughtneil came from seven points down at half-time to earn a 0-12 to 2-6 draw with Dungiven at Owenbeg on Saturday night.

Dungiven looked to have one foot in the October 5 decider when goals from Darrell O'Kane and Conor Murphy propelled them into a 2-5 to 0-4 interval lead. But second half points from Gerald Bradley, Padraig Kelly, Chris Bradley and Chrissy McKaigue dragged Slaughtneil back into it before Se McGuigan kicked a late equaliser.

Reigning county and provincial champions Ballinderry booked their place in the final with a 0-16 to 0-7 victory over Coleraine last Thursday night.
