Stevie Donougher made it 15 goals in five games since joining Llandudno after adding another four to her collection in Sunday’s Genero Adran North caning of Airbus.

The 24-year-old Australian has netted hat-tricks in three of her five Seasiders matches so far, also scoring at least once in every appearance.

The Sydney sharp-shooter broke through in the very first minute at Nantporth Stadium.

Kelsey Davies crossed into the box for Donougher to shoot, Wingmakers keeper Ruby Stevens saved but then lost the ball and the Aussie followed up to net at the second attempt.

In the 10th minute it was 2-0. Donougher passed to Erin Doran, who chipped the ball to Maddie Williams and she turned quickly before firing into the top corner.

On the half-hour, Stacey Tradewell found Cara Hughes on the right-wing. Hughes carried the ball to the 18-yard-box and hit a strike which Stevens kept out, but Donougher pounced to score number three.

Donougher completed her hat-trick after 36 when she headed into the top-right corner after meeting a Davies delivery.

Half-time: Llandudno 4-0 Airbus

Eight minutes into the second half, Donougher nodded the ball over the Airbus defence and Hughes latched onto it, rounding the keeper and slotting into the net.

Donougher was the provider again on 57 minutes when she beat a number of defenders with a fine run then delivered along the six-yard box where Davies finished at the back post.

Player of the match and captain Sofie Owen made it 7-0. Doran’s corner landed on the penalty spot and there was a scramble before Owen skilfully diverted a shot into the net.

Donougher fittingly had the last word on 78 minutes.

Keeper Meg Robinson found Sofie Owen who passed on to Ffion Owen. The Anglesey-based midfielder played a nice one-two with Maddie Williams before the latter provided a great pass to Donougher, who went for goal.

Stevens got a touch on the shot, but it was too powerful to keep out of the net.

Connah’s Quay Nomads 8 CPD Y Rhyl 1879 1

Nomads lead the early Genero Adran North standings with three straight wins on their record.

Sunday saw the Deesiders record an 8-1 victory over a Rhyl 1879 side they had defeated 8-0 seven days earlier in the Genero Adran Trophy.

Shannon Hobbs struck first in the latest meeting of the teams, lashing into the roof of the net from the edge of the area after 11 minutes.

Elana Harley made it two on 25 minutes before Hobbs added a third on the half-hour.

Ella Harvey scored the next home goal before Sade Benjamin hit back for the visitors with her ninth of the season.

Before the break, Alisha Wright had put Nomads 5-1 to the good.

The second half brought further home net-finders via Anais Bathily, Mel Barlow and Polly Wild-McGregor.

GENERO ADRAN TROPHY GROUP 1

Llanfair United 2 NFA FC 0

This rearranged group clash saw Llanfair take the honours at Mount Field.

Emma Williams broke the deadlock four minutes into the second half before a Caitlin Hadaway own goal made it 2-0 after 52.
