What a semi-final tie this local derby at The Rec proved to be.
Rhydymwyn led 3-0, but Sychdyn recovered to force extra time with their goalkeeper Nathan Bradbrook forcing a 95th minute equaliser.
The hosts then went on to clinch an epic Flintshire battle in the added half-hour.
Captain Connor Davies (2) and Kallum Pierce made it three-nil to Rhyd at rhe break.
The second half saw Adam Woosey make it 3-1 on 50, but it was not until the 88th minute that a Joe Mitchell penalty reduced the arrears to one.
Still, Rhydymwyn looked favourites to go through before in the 95th minute stopper Bradbrook came up for a Jordan Walker free kick and knocked in the equaliser to fervant scenes.
Walker put Sychdyn in front for the first time in the tie on 102, Rhyd had Ryan Carrington dismissed for a second yellow after 112, then sub Linden Puckey made it 5-3 soon after.
That was the end of the scoring but not the final drama, as the visitors had Sam Roberts red-carded with 120 on the clock.

Alex Williams pounced in the 94th minute to edge a seven-goal thriller in favour of an Overton outfit which overturned a 3-0 interval deficit.
Cei Connah enjoyed a storming first half, goals from keeper Rhys Edwards, Scott Roberts and Arkadiusz Mikula putting them in control.
It was still 3-0 until the 64th minute, when Evan Fowles pulled one back for Rec.
Harrison Plumb and Matty Tombs made it thre-apiece before Williams pocketed that dramatic decider.
A second win of the season for Dragons who remain bottom of the table.
Without a victory since a 6-3 triumph at Skippy last August, the Deeside outfit got past Bellevue thanks to net-finders from Jake Smith, sub Jordan Allen and a Stefan Putia penalty in the last 20 minutes, the visitors having led 1-0 at the break.
Double-figures for Yr Wyddgrug , who have won four of their last five matches.
Leon Sumner (3), skipper Lewis James (3, 1 pen), Taylor Morris, Henry Jones, Gethin Thomas and sub Luke Owen made up the 10.
James Williams salvaged a point for Druids with an equaliser past the 90-minute mark.
Anthony Weaver, Jonny Crossley and William Weaver had put Rangers in a seemingly winning position, but Bradley Dobson and Dan Sykes kept the Cefners in contention before veteran Williams scooped his 10th goal of the season.
