Saturday, 6 September

Bala Town 0-0 Penybont: Bala are down to third, a point above Penybont, after a tight game at Maes Tegid ended goalless. Ash Baker did find the back of the net for the visitors in the second half, but his effort was disallowed.

Cardiff Met 1-4 Colwyn Bay: Louis Robles scored twice as Colwyn Bay secured their first Cymru Premier win of the season with an impressive 4-1 victory at Cardiff Met, who remain without a win.

Robles capitalised on a defensive error to scored his first goal of the season to give Bay the lead at the break. Summer signing Lifumpa Mwandwe scored an excellent long range goal to bring Met level two minutes after the break.

But a fine Jordan Davies strike, Robles' second and Lewis Sirrell's stoppage time goal gave Mike Wilde his first Cymru Premier win as manager with Cardiff Met remaining in the bottom two.

Llanelli Town 0-5 Flint Town United: Elliot Reeves scored a hat-trick as Flint Town United turned in a dominant first half display to leave Llanelli remain rooted at the bottom of the table after a sixth consecutive defeat.

Darren Stephenson put the visitors ahead after just 38 seconds, scoring from Jake Phillips' cross while Elliott Reeves completed a first half hat-trick to give Lee Fowler's team a 4-0 interval lead.

Joshua Jones scored a fifth from the penalty spot for Flint, who are sixth in the table.

The New Saints 5-0 Haverfordwest County: Champions The New Saints returned to winning ways after back-to-back draws with an emphatic victory over Haverfordwest at Park Hall.

Rory Holden gave Saints an early lead before two goals in three minutes from Jordan Williams extended the home side's lead.

Ryan Brobbel made it 4-0 on 65 minutes before Williams completed his hat-trick two minutes later as Saints moved up to second in the table.
