53 min: Pritchard gets down brilliantly to foil Fleming
54 min: Bay’s Toby Jones goes close with a 20-yarder
56 min: Sion Edwards crosses to the back post and Harri Jones looks set to find a gaping goal, but his effort is gathered by the keeper
62 min – GOAL: It had to come. Trearddur Bay had been knocking on the door with some gusto. Keeper Reid’s poor clearance ends up with Les Davies who is denied by a great save, but substitute CASEY GREGG whips in the rebound, RHYL 0 TREARDDUR BAY 1
76 min: Almost a second for Bay, Harri Jones’ header from a corner cleared off the line.
85 min – GOAL: Trearddur win free kick some 25 yards out and TOBY JONES scores with a beauty which was a goal the second it left his boot. RHYL 0 TREARDDUR BAY 2

90 +: Pressure from the Lilywhites, but too little, too late. A second straight defeat for 1879 after 16 without loss. Bay become the second Anglesey side in a forenight to complete the double over 1879. Much work still to do to win that title
