Briton Ferry Llansawel 2-3 Aberystwyth Town: A hat-trick by Carys Bufton completed a turnaround for Aberystwyth at Old Road. Goals by Jade Crofts and Megan Kearle put the hosts 2-0 up, but Bufton scored twice at the end of the first half and then scored what turned out to be the winner approaching the hour.
Pontypridd United 2-3 Barry Town United: Pontypridd remain rooted to the bottom of the table after suffering a fifth straight defeat in a dramatic game at USW Sports Park. Lili Angove gave them a 1-0 lead at the break and Madison Lloyd doubled their advantage in the 81st minute. However, a remarkable finish saw Barry snatch all three points thanks to a double by Beca Thomas and Millie Breen's injury-time winner in the first game since Steve McCarthy-Campbell stepped down.
The New Saints 1-2 Swansea City: Swansea got back to winning ways after losses to Cardiff and Wrexham by becoming the first team to beat TNS at Park Hall this season. Zara Gibbs put the hosts in front, but it was level-pegging when Chloe Chivers struck the bar with a long-range free-kick and the ball rebounded in off unfortunate goalkeeper Mackenzie Haydn-Jones. Stacey John put Swansea in front with a penalty after 35 minutes and that was enough for three points to go level with third-placed TNS.
Wrexham 1-1 Cardiff City: The top two drew 1-1 at The Globe after visitors Cardiff scored an 85th-minute penalty to deny Wrexham. The sides are locked on 13 points thanks to Fiona Barry staying cool from the spot in the closing stages. Katie Barker put Wrexham in front after 14 minutes with a calm lob from outside the area after latching onto a long ball, but the Bluebirds claimed a point that means they stay top courtesy of a better goal difference.
