LOCK STOCK ARDAL NORTH WEST

Connah’s Quay Town 2 CPD Porthmadog 2

Gambia-born striker Pascal Gomez struck twice in three minutes late on to rescue a point for Connah’s Quay Town.

On both occasions Gomez,took advantage of assists by the vastly experienced former Bangor City, Rhyl and York City forward Jamie Reed to earn newly-promoted Town a share of the points.

Danny Brookwell had given Port a good start with an opener after only 14 minutes, assisted by Rhys Alun.

Five minutes into the second period the visitors doubled their score when Rhys Alun found the net, Tom Hilditch the chance supplier.

Port paid the price for failing to add to their tally with double marksman Gomez salvaging a draw for his team.

Jack Roberts of Connah’s Quay saw red on 86, but it was too late to have any influence on the game.

Llangefni Town 1 Corwen 2

Alex Webster’s 75th minute decider earned Ardal North West new boys Corwen a first league win of the campaign.

Jamie Thomas handed Cefni a 36th minute lead before Henry Evans equalised on 48.

CPD Llannefydd 2 Holyhead Hotspur 1

Lewys Turner’s 79th minute net-finder earned Llannefydd a fine win over a Hotspur outfit which had started the season so well.

Cory Williams edged the Holy Islanders in front on 27 minutes from the penalty spot, but Llion Morris levelled on the stroke of half time.

NFA 2 Conwy Borough 1

Archie Jones’ 94th minute penalty clinched a dramatic first Tier 3 victory for NFA.

Sam Brewerton nudged the Rhyl side in front after three minutes, but Ray Knight made it all-square just before half time.

It was heading for a draw until that late spot-kick.

NFA had two players red-carded past the 90 minute mark.

Nantlle Vale 1 CPD Y Rhyl 1879 2

Last season Rhyl left Maes Dulyn empty-handed – but on Saturday it was a different story.

Goals from Jonny Bravo and Callum Parry clinched the Lilywhites three points.

Bravo broke the deadlock on seven minutes with a neat finish to the top-left corner following some fine work by Parry on the left of the 18 yard box.

The visitors remained dominant in the first half. A Parry attempt flashed past the right post following a great save by home keeper Oliver Rhys Jones.

In the 56th minute, a mix-up between Tom Kemp and goalkeeper Josh Cooke left the door open for Llion Griffiths to find an equaliser.

Rhyl upped their game and created a number of openings. With 73 minutes played it was Parry once again who would prove the difference, finding the back of the net following a great effort by Kemp.

CPD Pwllheli 0 St Asaph City 0

Ten-man Pwllheli held on for a home point following the 65th minute sending off of Marcus Banks.

Trearddur Bay 1 Llanrwst United 1

Substitute Les Davies scored with a great header 10 minutes into added time at the end of the 90 to secure Trearddur Bay their first point as an Ardal North West team.

Llanrwst, who have started the season very impressively, led from the 27th minute through the very much on-form Julian Williams.

LOCK STOCK ARDAL NORTH EAST

Llansantffraid Village 1 Cefn Albion 7

Four-goal hero Jimmy Jones, back with Albion after a spell at Ruabon Rovers, was in sensational form for the Cefners on Saturday.

Nic Jones, Conner Kendrick (pen) and Tyler Wilkinson were also on the mark as the visitors made it successive league wins.

Both sides had a player sent off midway through the first half – Patrick Udoh of Llansantffraid and Albion’s Kien Morris receiving their marchimg orders.

Brickfield Rangers 3 Kerry 2

Gerson Silva Neto delivered a dramatic 97th minute winner for the hosts at Clwyedog Park.

Luke Evans gave Kerry a 17th minute lead, but Xavier Matisse was red-carded for the visitors with 22 on the clock.

Harri Lucas-Jones equalised before the break.

Richard Davies restored the away advantage on 54, but Leroy Ngema-Stamp made it two-apiece on 75 before that late, late decider gave the Bricky maximum honours.

CPD Rhos Aelwyd 3 Radnor Valley 1

Geraint Lloyd put Radnor in front after four minutes, but Rhos recovered to win with goals from Evan Davies, Aled Robertson and Scott Reeves.

Dolgellau AA 1 Penycae 0

Paul Lewis notched the only goal of the game at Cae Marian after 68 minutes.

Llandrindod Wells 2 Llangollen Town 3

Sub Vinnie Cooke bagged an injury-time winner for Llangollen.

Town were 2-0 down before the half-hour, Kieran McCarley and Daryl Nichols on target, but Meuryn Hughes pulled one back close to the interval and 16-year-old William Cooke made it two-apiece on 77 as a prelude to that 91st minute decider.

Llanidloes Town 0 Llanfair United 2

Harvey Morris and Karl Seliaerts provided the goals which brought the points to Llanfair at KVM Park.

Llanuwchllyn 3 Builth Wells 1
