Ardal North East – Rhos Aelwyd pegged back late for draw, great Llangollen recovery

New Rhos Aelwyd signing Leighton Evans

ARDAL NORTH EAST REPORTS – SATURDAY, AUGUST 12

Rhos Aelwyd 2 Llanuwchllyn 2

Rhos Aelwyd led 2-0 before eventually being pegged back for a draw by a Llanuwchllyn side which never gave in.

Another entertaining and competitive fixture delivered a goalless first half, but five minutes after the resumption a well-worked move from a Sam Baldam cross eventually saw the ball drop to Dyfan Thomas, who slammed home in style.

In the 69th minute, Evan Woodall doubled the lead with a sublime 40-yard chipped effort.

Llanuwchllyn deservedly pulled one back on 74 minutes through Meilir Williams and with a significant amount of added time, Joe Williams levelled with 99 on the clock.

Gareth Rhodri Jones’ men remain unbeaten with 7 points from 9 after a gruelling week of fixtures.

The focus for all is now on Wednesday’s derby fixture against arch rivals Penycae.

Rhos have signed Leighton Evans from Llay Welfare and Iwan Phillips from Penycae.

Bow Street 5 Llanfair United 0

Leaders Bow made it nine points out of nine with a five-goal whipping of Llanfair.

Ifan Burrell, Rhydian Davies (pen), Joshua Crowl (2) and Gwion ap Dafydd shared the home goals, the visitors having had Jack Jones sent off for a second yellow after 36 minutes.

Builth Wells 2 Llangollen Town 2

Town’s great start continued as they fought back from two-down to earn a draw courtesy of second-half strikes from Ben Wilson and Gwilym Keddie.

Lyndon Jones’ double had put Builth in a comfortable position at half time.

Llanrhaeadr YM 0 Llandrindod Wells 0

Penrhyncoch P Welshpool Town P (Welshpool unable to raise team)

Radnor Valley 3 Dolgellau 3

A six-goal corker ended honours even.

Ioan Roberts put Dolgellau ahead on 15 minutes, Thomas Edwards and Taylor Wozencraft (37 and 41) turned things around in Radnor’s favour, but early in the second half Gerwyn Williams made it two-apiece.

Ben Fisher nudged Dol in front on 59, but an 84th minute equaliser from Joseph Price ensured it finished all-square.
