Cemaes gradually got on top in the second half, Iolo Hughes making it 2-1 on 57 before Wood added a third after 71. sub Codie Holland assisting.

Clive Williams cut the deficit to 3-2 on 77 to set up a potentially exciting finish, but three goals past the 90-minute mark saw Bay home, McGivern with two to complete his treble before 17-year-old Holland added a sixth.
