Meath to face Dublin in next Saturday's Leinster decider

Meath will tackle Dessie Farrell's Dublin in the Leinster SFC final at Croke Park next Saturday at 7pm,

It will be a repeat of the 2019 decider after Dublin strolled through their semi-final this evening against Laois at Croke Park.

Dublin eased to victory and after a tentative opening they took a 0-3 to 0-2 lead at the first water break, but they were ahead by 1-7 to 0-2 at the interval.

It was more impressive after the interval and by the second water break Dublin were well on the way to victory.

By full-time the six-in-a-row-All-Ireland-title-chasing Dublin side had 22 points to spare with a 2-23 to 0-7 victory.
