ERYRI CONSULTING PREMIER DIVISION WEST REPORTS

Aberffraw 0 Bethesda Athletic 4

Table-toppers Bethesda made it 10 league games without defeat and stretched their lead to seven points with a ruthless away win at Aberffraw.

A John Richard Jones own goal gave Mark N Hughes’ men a 17th minute lead and Osian Hughes doubled the away tally on 22.

In the second half, Benn Lundstram converted a penalty on 70 minutes and Daniel Hughes made it four after 75.

Glantraeth 2 Gwalchmai 0

Goals from Dylan Williams (33 minutes) and Andy Clarke (87) clinched a really good win for Glantraeth over a Gwalchmai side missing suspended top-scorer Connor Owen.

Llannerchymedd 3 Pwllheli 4

A cracker at Tan Parc saw Llannerchymedd come back from a goal down three times only to be beaten by a 90th minute winner from Pwllheli’s Louis McFarlane.

Carl Jones edged the visitors in front from a 10th minute penalty and it stayed 1-0 until Ben Hughes equalised in the opening moments of the second half.

Jordan Roberts hit Pwllheli’s second on 56, Hughes converted a penalty after 58 for 2-2, Jason Banks put the Llŷn Peninsula back ahead on 65, but in the 87th, Lewis Connor delivered Medd’s third equaliser.

It looked like a draw was going to happen before McFarlane settled the issue.

Nefyn United 1 Talysarn Celts 1

Garem Jones struck first for Talysarn after just four minutes, but it eventually ended all-square at Cae’r Delyn, Tomi Jones with the equaliser on 73.

Penrhyndeudraeth 3 Mynydd Llandegai 1

Reece Evans (2) and Cai Henshaw scooped the points for ever-improving Penrhyn, Leon Owen having initially scored first for the visitors on 26 minutes.

Evans netted on 27 and 72, Henshaw after 67.

Pentraeth 5 Amlwch Town 5

One of the games of the season so far took place at Bryniau Field.

Amlwch led 3-1, trailed 5-3 but fought back to grab a point with a double from four-goal hero Jack Griffiths.

Gareth Torr and Griffiths put the visitors two-up inside 12 minutes, but Matthew Morris pulled one back after 26.

Griffiths made it 3-1, only for Cai Evans Hughes cut the deficit to one before half time with a pen for Pen.

Pentraeth really picked up after the break, Cian Taylor (47 and 56 min) and Osian Goulding (48) rapidly putting them 5-3 to the good.

Amlwch refused to accept they would end up with nothing and Jack Griffiths scored on 67 and 73 to ensure it ended five-apiece.

ERYRI CONSULTING DIVISION ONE WEST REPORTS

CPD Caergybi 1 Llanystumdwy 1

Sion Thomas’ goal provided Caergybi with a sixth-minute lead, but Aaron Jones made it 1-1 on 55 and that is how it stayed.

CPD Cefni 1 Holyhead Town 0

Phillip Davies’ 74th minute decider booked the three points for hosts Cefni.

Llanfairpwll 4 Arriva 0

Cian Owen, Rees Roberts, Adam Thomas and Marquis Holland all scored one apiece in what was a welcome return to winning ways for Llanfairpwll after a couple of difficult-to-take defeats.

Owen and Roberts were on target in the first half, Thomas and Holland in the closing minutes of the second.

CPD Mountain Rangers 2 CPD Bontnewydd 2

Ben Davies bagged a very late double to earn Rangers a point they didn’t look like getting.

Ianto Ap Rhun and Meilir Rowlands had put Bont in command with goals on 61 and 65 minutes respectively.

CPD Y Fali 3 Llangoed and District 1

Wins in football can be a bit like buses….you wait ages for one and then two come along at once.

That has been the case for Y Fali, who suffered seven losses on the bounce before beating Gaerwen 3-2 on November 5 and then followed up with another victory at the expense of Llangoed and District at the weekend.

Fali had won 5-1 at Llangoed earlier in the campaign, so made it a welcome double which edged them further away from the bottom four.

Llangoed took the lead when Laurence Mandel found the net on seven minutes.

It was not until first half added time that Dan Owen equalised for the hosts with his fourth goal in as many matches – a fantastic header.

Sub Gwynfor Owen nudged Fali in front on 72 minutes with a top-corner finish and the same man struck again after 78 with a tap-in to seal the points.
