The Hotspur coaching team

“Second half and getting minutes and utilising the whole squad we wanted to try 1-2 different formations and keep the ball moving. Credit to Gaerwen they never stopped chasing all game.
“With 5 minutes to go a well-worked team goal finished off by Kane Astles saw us round off the game as it started.

Despite being reduced to 10 men early in the second half with the score at 1-1, Y Glannau ran out emphatic 6-2 winners at Roe Plas Meadows.
