Three days after winning the national WBS League Cup, Mold advanced to the semi-finals of the NEWFA Challenge Cup with a 3-0 victory over Tier 4 Rhostyllen on Tuesday.
Michael Cunningham and Steve Monk’s side will now take on Gresford Athletic in the last four on Tuesday, April 30, at the Hollingsworth Group Stadium, Airbus UK Broughton, kick off 7.30 pm.
Alex, confirmed as fourth-place finishers in the Cymru North after Bangor 1876’s 2-2 draw at Denbigh Town last night, proved too strong for their North East Wales League Premier Division opponents on Tuesday evening at Alyn Park.
Rhostyllen keeper Mark Richards produced a couple of fine first-half saves before the Tier 2 hosts took a 44th minute lead.
Henry Nash played a one-two with brother Rhys before slotting past the keeper.
Jake Roberts went close early in the second half before the lead was doubled on the hour.
Henry Nash delivered a good ball across the box and Steve Watkins was on hand to tap in.
In the 70th minute, Danny Warren’s 32nd goal of the season made it 3-0, more good work from Henry Nash setting up the scorer.
Warren almost added a second, but Richards pulled off a great fingertip save.
Alex have already won the WBS League Cup Northern and WBS League Cup national – now they are targeting a trophy treble.
Semi-finalists Mold and Gresford have won the NEWFA Challenge Cup on four and three occasions respectively.
