The Bute Energy Welsh Cup quarter-finals delivered goals, drama and dominant performances, as three Adran Premier sides booked their places in the semi-finals.
Three of the four last-four spots are now confirmed, with Cwmbran Celtic vs Briton Ferry postponed.
Here’s a full Welsh Cup quarter-final round-up, featuring wins for Cardiff City, Swansea City and Wrexham.
Cardiff City 3-0 The New Saints: Bluebirds March On

The only all-Adran Premier quarter-final saw Cardiff City Women secure a convincing 3-0 victory over The New Saints at home.
The Bluebirds made the perfect start when Ffion Price opened the scoring inside the opening minutes. Cardiff controlled the game and maintained their 1-0 lead until the 75th minute, when Nieve Jenkins doubled the advantage. Just moments later, Laura Curnock added a third to put the result beyond doubt.
Earlier this week, manager Iain Darbyshire announced he will be leaving Cardiff City, having guided the club to four consecutive Welsh Cup titles. The Bluebirds will now be aiming to give him the perfect send-off by lifting a fifth straight Welsh Cup trophy.
Swansea City 6-0 Llandudno: Swans Cruise into Semi-Finals

Swansea City Women underlined their status as favourites with a dominant 6-0 win over Llandudno at Llandarcy.
The Swans went into the break 2-0 ahead, with goals from Jessica Williams and Maisie Miller. Swansea wasted no time after half-time, as Taite Trivett made it three shortly after the restart.
An own goal from Jessica Mills extended the lead to four, before Trivett grabbed her second of the afternoon. Maddy Murray completed the rout with Swansea’s sixth goal, sealing a comprehensive Welsh Cup quarter-final victory.
