Good weekend for soccer!
Welshpool 1 Carmarthen Town 3
Having not recorded a win at Maesydre since April 1998, Carmarthen Town finally notched up a first League win that their form had threatened with a convincing win over the Mid Wales Lillywhites.
Danny Thomas broke the deadlock early on six minutes netting a left-wing Stuart Roberts cross. Then as the break approached he raced on to a long ball for his second lobbing home keeper Jack Cudworth who protested that the striker had handled.
Then with Sacha Walters adding a third on the stroke of half time Town established a comfortable first half lead. Michael Cronshaw netted a consolation goal just after half-time for the hosts but manager Deryn Brace will be pleased that Town have finally recorded a positive result to get their campaign underway.
Town: N Thomas, R Hughes, Smothers (Dodds 62'), Palmer, Handford, K Thomas, D Thomas, Walters (Brace 90'), Fowler, C Hughes, Roberts (Hicks 78') .
Llanelli 3 Newtown 2
The Reds beat Newtown 3 2 at Stebonheath with goals from Rhys Griffiths (45) Craig Moses (51) and Jason Bowen (61). Newtown took the lead after 35 minutes through Obi Anoro and Dylain Blain equalised to make it 2 2 after 59 minutes before Bowen's strike two minutes later sealed the points for the home side.
