JD CYMRU NORTH – Sep 28, 2021

Ruthin Town 3 (Hill 13 & 33; Dyer 41)
Prestatyn Town 2 (Wise 12 & 30)

All the goals came in the first half of Tuesday’s clash at the Memorial Playing Fields which saw visitors Prestatyn slump to a fifth straight defeat in all competitions.

Defender Jacob Wise struck first for the Seasiders on 12 minutes, but the hosts were level in no time through Matty Hill.

Wise pounced again to restore the away lead on the half-hour, but the 33rd minute saw Hill equalise.

Tom Dyer notched what turned out to be the winner four minutes before the break.

No further goals in the second half, but Prestatyn woes were added to when Ben Barratt was shown a red card two minutes from time.
