Llandudno 2-0 Barry Town United
Llandudno picked up their first win of the season with victory against Barry, who recorded impressive victories against Connah’s Quay Nomads and Bala Town in their opening four games.
Two goals in the space of three first half minutes proved to be decisive for Iwan Williams’ men, who moved out of the bottom two with this result.
Midfielder Leo Smith opened the scoring in the 29th minute, before forward John Owen popped up in the 31st minute with his first goal of the season.
Cardiff Metropolitan University 1-0 Cefn Druids
In a scrappy affair at Cyncoed Campus, the Archers were able to edge out the Cefn Druids and exact revenge for last season’s Europa League playoff final at The Rock.
The game seemed to be limping towards a stalemate, however, 15 minutes from time, a Kyle McCarthy indirect free-kick from inside the area deflected off Dean Rittenberg and into the net to give the home side the crucial breakthrough.
Christian Edwards’ men were able to survive a late onslaught by Huw Griffiths’ men, and hold on for a win which sees them move up to third in the Welsh Premier League.

The Nomads stay in second, three points behind leaders The New Saints.
