So I managed to solve this problem by Using Mod_Proxy. Editing the 000-Deafult.conf file in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled and adding the following lines:
ProxyPass /SomeUrl !
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/
The first line indicates what you don't want to proxy and the second one indicates what to proxy.In this case forward the ROOT app of Tomcat at port 8080 to the root of the Apache web server
Also edited the server.xml file in /etc/tomcat7 and added the following
<Connector port="8080" protocol="AJP/1.3" proxyName="www.mydomain.com" proxyPort="80"/>
