Tough draw for Carmarthen in Welsh Cup

Carmarthen Town AFC have a tough draw away to Airbus UK Broughton for the quarter-final of the Welsh Cup.
The draw was made by former Wales Internationals Dai Davies and John Hartson.
Holders Llanelli have another away draw in the north, with a visit to Bala Town.
The Reds have already had to win at Bangor City and Rhyl to reach Round 5, but the draw doesn't get any easier for Andy Legg's team, against a Bala Town team who are seeking a second semi-final in three seasons, under manager Colin Caton.
TNS host Neath in a battle of the two full-time clubs, which is sure to be a thrilling encounter, while Carmarthen Town will not relish their trip to Airbus UK Broughton, which has not been a successful stadium for the Old Gold.
Aberystwyth Town will be delighted to once again have a home draw against lower-League opposition as they entertain Huw Griffiths' Cefn Druids, the only non Corbett Sports Welsh Premier League side left in the Competition.
