Bethel and Pwllheli land South Wales giants in Welsh Cup quarter-finals

Bethel and Pwllheli have both been paired with teams from the top three of the Genero Adran Premier in the quarter-finals of the FAW Women’s Welsh Cup.

Bethel are home to mighty Cardiff Met, while Pwllheli face the long and difficult trip to Swansea City in the last eight.

New FAW chief executive Noel Mooney made the draw this evening.

The three ‘big guns’ Cardiff Met, Cardiff City FC Women and Swansea were all drawn apart.

Bethel made the quarters with a thrilling penalty shoot out victory over Connah’s Quay Nomads on Sunday, while Pwllheli edged a 1-0 verdict at CPD Y Rhyl 1879.

Both Bethel and Pwllheli are in the tier 2 Genero Adran North league.

Bethel have made the last eight twice before, while Pwllheli were beaten finalists back in 2006.

The quarter-final ties will be played on February 6, 2022.
