Saturday’s reports

Cookson Cup round one

Penmaenmawr Phoenix 4-0 Meliden

Four second half goals sent a red-hot Phoenix outfit into the quarter-finals.
A scrappy first half saw both teams cancel each other out and it ended 0-0.
In the second period, Phoenix came flying out of the traps. A goalmouth scramble in the 49th minute led to Jamie Jones poking home from close range.
Adam Hold made it two when he found himself unmarked at the back post from a Ricky Jones delivery and smashed the ball into the top corner from a tight angle.
Four minutes later Hold doubled his account for the afternoon via a 30 yard free kick which flew into the top corner, giving the Meliden keeper no chance.
Phoenix rounded off a fine second half performance in the 80th minute. Some great play down the left hand side from Hold saw him pick out Dan Williams at the back stick, the striker calmly finishing for his 11th goal of the season.
Phoenix manager Aaron Keating said: “Credit to Meliden, they are a team who are aggressive and try to play football in the right way. We will definitely have two difficult games against them when we meet in the league, a challenge I am sure the lads will be up for.”

CPD Cerrigydrudion 4-1 Bro Cernyw

Tirion Griffiths and Delwyn Jones scored two apiece for a dominant Cerrigydrudion.
The hosts were 3-0 up before Ianto Roberts pulled one back close to half time.

Kinmel Bay 6-2 Glan Conwy

Cup holders Bay stretched their unbeaten run since the start of the season to 12 matches with a convincing 6-2 defeat of Glan Conwy.
Charlie Jones, Sean Sheridan (2, 1 pen), Jordan Bellham, Connor Morris and Dom Holland shared the home goals, Mezz Knight and Dion Lloyd replying.

Llandudno Junction 6-2 Llanfairfechan Town

Despite playing with 10 men from the 22nd minute after Bryan Roberts was red-carded, Junction went on to win handsomely boosted by a four-goal haul from Rob Gore.
Gore netted a first-half hat-trick, striking on 22, 35 and 43 minutes and made it a personal quadruple after 73, Tomos Rhys-Williams and Nathan Williams also on target for the Railwaymen.
Ellis Jones netted twice for Llanfairfechan.

CPD Llansannan 4-0 Llandyrnog United

Elis Davies, Jack Davies (2, 1 pen) and Leon Gierke guided Llansannan to a comfortable home success.

Mochdre Sports 2-4 Llandudno Amateurs

Joe Jones (2), Ryan Boddis (pen) and Harry Roberts combined to earn the Amateurs a great away result, Joshua Grimshaw and Gareth Jones the Mochdre marksmen.

Rhuddlan Town 1-4 CPD Y Glannau

David McHugh, Dan Price, Dan Porter and new signing Steven Kirk secured Y Glannau’s progression to the last eight after Lee Jones had edged Rhuddlan in front.
