Flint Mountain stun CPD Y Rhyl 1879 in Ardal North Cup

ARDAL NORTH CUP

Flint Mountain 2 (Smart 23, Smyth 76)
CPD Y Rhyl 1879 1 (M Taylor 90+4)

A great night for Flint Mountain as they knocked out Rhyl 1879 to secure a home tie against Brickfield Rangers in the last 16 of the Ardal North Cup.

It was a third defeat in four matches for 1879, who had key players back from suspension but were second best on the evening.

Mountain broke the deadlock in the 23rd minute through a great Corey Smart finish and it stayed 1-0 up to half time.

A home win looked more likely in the 76th minute when Kyle Smyth fired superbly into the bottom corner.

Rhyl pulled one back through Macauley Taylor four minutes into added time, but it was too late to save them.
