REPORTS – ARDAL NORTH WEST (NOV 8)

Penmaenmawr Phoenix 3 CPD Dinas Bangor City 1876 3

Jamie Reed saved Bangor City 1876’s unbeaten league record with an added time penalty equaliser at Cae Sling.

What a battle it was, though, with Penmaenmawr, who struggled so badly at the start of the season, pushing the league title favourites so close in a six-goal cracker.

A crowd of 647 witnessed a game that will long live in the memory.

Bethesda Athletic 1 Llanrwst United 1

Corey Lundstram’s 83rd minute equaliser from a Noa Hughes assist salvaged a point for Bethesda and halted Llanrwst’s four-match winning run.
The Rwsters had taken a 63rd minute lead through Cieran Williams.

Mynydd Isa 1 Trearddur Bay 3

Trearddur Bay made it three league wins on the bounce at the expense of hosts Mynydd Isa.
After a goalless first half, defender Harri Jones broke the deadlock in Bay’s favour on 53 minutes.
Just past the hour, Sean McCaffery made it 2-0 from a Thomas Taylor assist.
And it was three in the 67th minute when Christoph Aziamale netted for the third successive game.
George Davies claimed Mynydd Isa’s only response with 76 on the clock.

Porthmadog 1 NFA 1

Leaders Porthmadog dropped points for only the second time this season as NFA showed once more they are one of the league’s trickiest sides to beat.
The Rhyl visitors took the lead on 18 minutes through Owen Herbert Jack Parry-Jones setting him up.
Macauley Taylor missed a penalty for NFA on 36, then the away side had a player sent off with 39 gone, David Wallis receiving his third red card of the season.
Despite having 10 men, NFA managed to hold onto their lead until the 83rd minute when Cai Jones finished off from a Dan Atkins assist.

CPD Pwllheli 2 Connah’s Quay Town 1

Harris Thomas edfed Town into a ninth-minute lead, but before half time Pwllheli had turned the tables, going into at the break 2-1 ahead courtesy of goals from Steffan Toplis and Dafydd Roberts.
No further goals in the second half, but Thomas was red-carded for Connah’s Quay in the 85th minute.

St Asaph City 3 CPD Llannefydd 3

Bottom side St Asaph battled their hearts out to earn a point at Roe Plas. James Williams with the 87th minute equaliser.
Liam Grayson handed Saints a seventh-minute lead, but Llion Morris and Mathew Jones replied to ensure Llan were in front at the turnaround.
When Lewys Turner made it 3-1 on 78, an away win looked assured, but the hosts rallied, Josh Brown converting an 86th minute penalty before Williams levelled things up.

CPD Y Felinheli 1 Llay Welfare 1

A Dan Pyrs own goal on the stroke of half time earned Llay a 1-0 advantage at the break, but two minutes into the second period, Aled Hughes made it one-apiece.
That was the end of the scoring, both sides having to be satisfied with a point.
