Rhuddlan Town moved nine points clear at the Vale of Clwyd and Conwy League Premier Division summit as they made it 14 matches unbeaten with a 2-0 home win over fellow high-flyers Abergele.
Wayne Hughes’ side made the perfect start when Matty Rees blasted into the top corner from 18 yards after just two minutes.
In a game dominated by the wind. Abergele hit the post on the hour, but Rhuddlan remained strong against the elements, Ian Davenport securing the win with a tidy finish from inside the area after good work from Jordan Bellham on 75 minutes.
Winning manager Hughes said: “Great result for the lads today with us missing six players from last week’s win against Llanfairfechan. All credit goes to Keiran Evans, who took the team today, and all the lads.”
Bro Cernyw pipped Y Glannau 1-0.
In bad weather conditions, both sides missed a number of chances.
The deciding goal came in the 34th minute when Bryn Griffiths was brought down in the penalty area and centre-back Colin Roberts slotted the ball home with venom, making up for his last spot-kick miss.
