Championship Conference

Cardiff City 1-2 Wrexham: Wrexham came from behind to beat reigning champions Cardiff to clinch a sixth consecutive win in all competitions. Lily Billingham put the Bluebirds ahead with her third goal of the season, although Ava Suckley scored for the fourth game in succession to level proceedings. Abbie Iddenden netted for the ninth time this season to complete the turnaround in the second half and earn the north Wales side victory at Cardiff International Sports Stadium. Cardiff's lead at the top is cut to five points. Wrexham rise to third after a ninth league win of the season.

The New Saints 1-2 Briton Ferry Llansawel: Briton Ferry came from behind to earn a dramatic win at TNS. Lexi Jones headed the hosts in front after just 15 minutes at Park Hall - her 12th goal of the campaign in all competitions. Alison Witts' penalty was saved by Megan Bowen, but Lowri Ridings equalised midway through the second half before Laura-May Walkley won it for Ferry five minutes from time. Briton Ferry - who are second - move to within five points of leaders Cardiff. TNS drop to fourth.

Plate Conference

Barry Town United 1-3 Aberystwyth Town: Aberystwyth produced a fine fightback to clinch their third league victory of the campaign and heap more misery on Barry. Jasmine Turner notched her first league goal since scoring in the corresponding fixture in September to put Barry ahead. But Libby Isaac equalised from the penalty spot before Carys Bufton put the visitors ahead at Jenner Park. Lily Moralee-Hughes capped off the win in the final minute of the contest. Barry - who had Erin Murray sent off in added time - stay sixth having won just once in 11 matches in all competitions. Town are seventh but moved nine points clear of bottom side Cardiff Met.

Cardiff Met 1-2 Swansea City: Swansea ended their six-game winless run in all competitions with a hard-fought win at Cardiff Met. Aimee Deacon hit the post for the Swans early on, with Charlotte Haynes denying Niamh Duggan at the other end. Celyn Garton turned into her own net in the 71st minute, although India Shanahan looked to have earned the hosts an unlikely point before Steph Turner scored her first goal of the season in the 88th minute to snatch victory for the away side. The Swans stay fifth, seven points clear of Barry. Met sit rock bottom and are nine points adrift of safety.
