The visitors took the lead through new signing Damien Ketley on 47 minutes, and Ketley’s goal was enough to see the away side move up to second with the win.
Porthmadog 1-2 Airbus
Airbus maintained their 100% record to start the season as they defeated Porthmadog away from home.
The Wingmakers took the lead through top goal scorer Asa Hamilton on 36 minutes, and the 100% record was under threat when the home side equalised on 58 minutes through Dale Davies. But, James Hooper won the game on 80 minutes for the league leaders.
Prestatyn 2-3 Ruthin
Ruthin defeated Prestatyn 3-2 on Saturday, as the Seasiders’ poor early season form continued in the Huws Gray Alliance.
Ruthin took the lead on 25 minutes through Tom Williams and Mathew Evans doubled the away side’s lead on the stroke of half time. Llyr Morris added a third for the away side as Ruthin went 3-0 ahead.
However, the home side pulled a goal back through Ian Griffiths on 81 minutes and Matthew Griffiths pulled another goal back on 89 minutes which made for a nervy finish at Bastion Gardens, but it was not enough as Ruthin held on. Penrhyncoch vs Holyhead was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
