Gwalchmai vaulted up to second place in the Premier, seven points behind leaders Bethesda Athletic but with three games in hand, after tonight’s hard fought win over Boded.
These two Anglesey village clubs have been football rivals for many years and there was plenty riding on this latest clash with both sides in the higher reaches of the table.
The derby at Maes Meurig was decided by a single goal.
On the half hour, Dion Jones’ shot was kept out by keeper Carwyn Hughes, but Cameron Jones, an early replacement for John Richard Jones, was following up to find the net.
Otherwise it was a game of few chances, Boded seeing more of the ball in the second half but Gwalch defending well.
Steve Driedyk was a five-goal hero for a Caergybi side which certainly had its shooting boots on tonight.
The 42-year-old was the toast of Millbank, his heroics including a six-minute treble towards the end of the match.
Jerome Sillence added a double and Ash Beck opened the scoring.
Wesley Jones of Cefni was red-carded on 36 minutes.
Cayden Hazeldine put Prestatyn ahead in the 73rd minute, but Sam Ross-Asplet salvaged a point for Bucks with the equaliser on 80.
Sixteen-year-old Alex Raloka again showed his great potential with a double for Llanrwst in tonight’s victory at Parc Gwydir.
Robat Jones and sub Morgan Flavell also netted for the Rwsters, Morgan Pollet-Thiollier with the away reply.
Matthew Mullarkey’s 91st minute strike clinched the points for Holywell United.
The hosts trailed 2-0 to goals from Harrison Plumb and Peter Thedens, but Owen Marley pulled one back before half time.
It remained 2-1 until Leo Finnan levelled on 85 minutes before Mullarkey provided the crowing moment.
Ryan Carrington and Kallum Pierce netted two apiece for Rhyd, captain Connor Davies and Thomas Chamberlain adding singles, Joshua Radford hitting back with a hat-trick for the Dragons.
Linden Puckey and sub Aaron North produced the second-half goals which banked another win for second-place Sychdyn.
The sides went in at half time level, Ross Walker going close with two long range efforts for the hosts.
The deadlock was broken when Puckey went through on goal around the hour mark, the keeper parried his first strike back into his path and he didn’t mess around with the follow up smashing it into the net.
To put the match to bed it was the two substitutes who connected, Ryan Walters finding North in the box who finished coolly from close range.
Jac Robins was awarded man of the match for an energetic performance all over the pitch
Levi Howat’s double secured the points for the Law, Jason Towey responding for Penyffordd in a game where all the goals came in the first half.
