REPORTS – WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 21

NORTH EAST WALES FOOTBALL LEAGUE

PREMIER DIVISION

FC Queen’s Park 1 Lex XI 2

Unbeaten Lex rose to second in the table after ending Wrexham rivals Queen’s Park’s 100 percent league record.

Before last night, Park had won seven out of seven in all competitions, scoring 24 goals and conceding just two.

Lex themselves were on a fine run of five straight wins in league and cup so something had to give at The Dunks.

The hosts took a 30th minute lead when Sean Humphreys found the net via a Liam Davies assist.

Five minutes before half time, Tom Huxley scored with a 30 yard screamer that curled beautifully in the corner.

The second half was end to end, Lex’s man of the match, goalkeeper Joey Jones, making a number of superb saves against his former club to keep the Law in the game.

Step forward Harry Massey, who made it 11 goals in three matches and 12 for the campaign with another stunner to secure Lex maximum points.

Coedpoeth United 2 Saltney Town 1

Eighteen-year-old substitute Ben Griffiths notched an 89th minute decider to seal victory for hosts Coedpoeth.

Leon Flatman had given visitors Saltney a first-half lead before Curtis Griffiths levelled just before the break.

Hawarden Rangers 6 CPD Caerwys 0

Connor Parry was a four-goal hero as Hawarden inflicted another heavy defeat on pointless bottom side Caerwys.
Haydn Cartwright and Ryan Tierney added a goal each for the hosts.

CHAMPIONSHIP DIVISION

Brymbo 0 Acton 4

Seb Kidd made it 12 goals in four league matches with a double at Brymbo.

Joseph Moss and sub Oliver Scarsbrook added further goals for Acton.

CPD Cei Connah 2 Deeside United 0

Lee O’Kelly and Paddy Sam Jones notched the goals which earned Cei Connah a first ever league win.

Broughton United 15 Deeside Dragons 0

Just five league games into their existence and already Broughton have hit double figures twice.

The impressive newcomers went top of the Championship after putting 15 past Dragons.

Seventeen-year-old Jayden Evans scored a stunning eight goals for the hosts – has a player that young ever scored that many times in a North Wales senior football game before?

Ethan Evans added three, Rhys Baines, Lewis Hopwood, Jake Jones and Jake Selvester one apiece.

Holywell United 3 Aston Park Rangers 2

Goals from Harvey Birch, Rhys Powell and Kieran Durkan were enough to edge Holywell the verdict over APR, Lewis Jones getting both for the visitors, who had Thomas Beacher dismissed in the 90th minute for a second yellow.

Skippy 0 Overton Recreational 4

Captain Alex Williams (2), Nathan Tombs and Peter Thedens split the goals for Overton in a comfortable win at Skippy.

CPD Sychdyn United 1 Johnstown YFC 1

Keneth Davies gave Johnstown a 17th minute lead, but an equaliser on 72 from sub Shay Davies earned Sychdyn a point.
