Tyrone boss Mickey Harte has handed former Omagh Town soccer star Colm McCullagh a dream debut ahead of Sunday's NFL tie with Dublin.

McCullagh, 26, has put his soccer career on hold to focus on his new GAA role and will start at corner forward against the Blues.

New skipper Cormac McAnallen misses out through injury so Conor Gormley starts at full-back with Brian Dooher taking the captain's armband.

Tyrone (SF v Dublin): P McConnell; R McMenamin, C Gormley, M McGee; C Holmes, G Devlin, C Gourley; K Hughes, S Cavanagh; M Coleman, B McGuigan, B Dooher; C McCullagh, O Mulligan, S Mulgrew.
