Nefyn marched into the final four of the Cwpan Snowdonia Fire Protection, delivering a dominant 2-0 win.
While the scoreboard suggests a professional victory, the reality was a dominant performance that saw the woodwork rattled on four separate occasions by the Penwaig.
The deadlock was broken by captain Llyr Pennant Williams when he rose highest in a crowded box to meet a great delivery from Tomos Huw, powering a header home to give Nefyn the vital lead. For Tomos Huw, it is yet another assist in a season defined by great distribution from the left flank.
Nefyn’s dominance was total. The visitors were saved by the narrowest of margins, as the Penwaig hit the frame of the goal four times during the contest. Talysarn lived on a knife-edge as Nefyn’s attackers repeatedly beat the keeper, only to be denied by the woodwork.
The pressure eventually told. Tomi Evans showcased his tireless work rate, harrying the defense into a mistake before threading a pass to Steffan Toplis. The January signing made no mistake, clinicaly dispatching the second from the edge of the box to kill off the tie and send Nefyn into the semis.
While the woodwork and the goals told the story at one end, Deio Rhys Jones was the architect in the middle of the park, with the 16 year old being named Player of the match.

In a frantic ending, Boded had Callum Hughes red-carded in the 90th minute and soon after James Bell set up Kalafusz for the decider.
Although still without a league win, cup specialists Gwalchmai advanced to the last four of the Cwpan Snowdonia with an heroic victory over Penrhyndeudraeth.
