NORTH EAST WALES FOOTBALL LEAGUE

PREMIER DIVISION

TABLES KINDLY PROVIDED BY: http://www.allwalessport.co.uk

Connah’s Quay Town 0 FC Queen’s Park 1

It was labelled North Wales’ game of the day in some quarters and it was certainly quite a contest which Queen’s Park won to move top of the Premier.

Both teams started the day with 100 percent records, so a close battle was almost a certainty.

A great result for the Park was sealed by a cool, calm and collected penalty by Tony “Trout” Jones.

In a true game of two halves the visitors dominated the first period and were unlucky not to score on a number of occasions.

Jack Hanley was unlucky to have one chalked off for offside. The impressive Dylan Jones also found himself clean through but narrowly dragged his shot wide.

For as dominant as the Park were in the first half, Connah’s Quay Town took over the second. A change in formation forced the Park onto the back foot and forced them to dig in.

With a few lucky moments helping them, the away team managed to hold on for the points against a quality Town side.

Coedpoeth United 0 Greenfield 1

Nathan Williams nabbed the 81st minute winner which keeps reigning champions Greenfield in the top three and still unbeaten.
