Cardiff City secure incredible comeback win over TNS in Adran Premier
Championship Conference
Sunday, 23 MarchThe New Saints 2-3 Cardiff City: Cardiff City made a remarkable comeback to take a big step towards securing the Adran Premier title. The Bluebirds found themselves two goals down with just over an hour played, Chantelle Teare and Kay Baker with the goals for hosts The New Saints. TNS held their 2-0 lead until the 88th minute, before the most unlikely of turnarounds. Nieve Jenkins gave Cardiff a glimmer of hope with two minutes remaining before Shannon Evans looked to have snatched a point in the first minute of added time. But there was to be even more late drama, as 19-year-old Megan Bowen scored in the 93rd minute to send the Bluebirds seven points clear at the top of the table with three games remaining.Briton Ferry Llansawel 2-2 Wrexham: Wrexham's five game winning run came to an end on Sunday as they were held to a draw at second-place Briton Ferry. The hosts took an early lead through Megan Kearle's penalty, but it was Wrexham who lead at half time thanks to goals from Abbie Iddenden and Ava Suckley. Briton Ferry kept their slim title hopes alive 10 minutes into the second half, as Kearle scored her second of the game. The draw, coupled with Cardiff's win, means Briton Ferry must win all three of their remaining fixtures and hope the Bluebirds drop points in each of their games.

Wrexham 'in talks with outgoing Leicester star on free transfer' as Welsh club eye up Premier League additions this summer
Wrexham are in talks to sign Wales goalkeeper Danny Ward on a free transfer following his departure from Leicester City, according to a report. The 31-year-old will leave the King Power Stadium when his deal expires at the end of the season. He has attracted the interest of the Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney-owned club. Ward made just five appearances in all competitions for the Foxes last term as the side were relegated to the Championship. A move to Wrexham, who will be playing in the second tier next term after three successive promotions, will see Ward return to the club where he came through as a youngster, though he never made a senior appearance for the side. According to Sky Sports' Rob Dorsett, the Welshman is in negotiations with the club over a move. Wrexham are keen to add Premier League quality to their ranks this summer and have been linked with the likes of Ben Davies, Danny Ings and Tom Cairney. On Sunday, Mail Sport reported that the side are still interested in signing Davies despite Tottenham exercising their option to extend the defender's contract by 12 months at the weekend. Davies has been a Spurs player since 2014 and he featured in 28 games under Ange Postecoglou last season, despite not being a member of the manager's first-choice XI. Davies has played 358 games for Tottenham in total, operating both as a left back and a central defender. Davies recently saw his contract extended until June 2026, which means Wrexham would likely need to pay Spurs a modest transfer fee to land him this summer. Tottenham's willingness to let Davies leave could depend on whether or not they are successful in their attempts to sign Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite. Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson looks set for a busy summer following his side's promotion from League One to the Championship. Davies has never played below the top tier of English football, having been a Premier League player for his entire club career to date. The 32-year-old made 71 Premier League appearances for Swansea between 2012 and 2014. He has played a further 242 Premier League games for Spurs.

Snoop Dogg has plans to open burger truck at soccer stadium in Scotland, and wants to serve fans himself
Snoop Dogg has revealed plans to open a burger truck and serve fans himself at a soccer stadium in the United Kingdom. The 53-year-old rapper has taken an interest in Celtic Park in Glasgow, the home of Scottish team Celtic. Snoop has previously spoken about his love for the team, saying he was inspired by Ryan Reynolds 's transformation of Wrexham. He told The Sunday Mail: 'I would love to bring a pop-up burger van to a sports stadium to show fans that food at stadiums can be good. It's got to be Celtic Park, man.' Snoop added: 'The secret to a good burger is the love in the preparation. The ground beef has got to be mixed with some secret spices, then add a good quality cheese and some maple-cured bacon. 'The Celtic fans are gonna love it, and to make sure they are just right, Snoop is going to be serving them himself. 'Am I going to bring my burgers to Rangers as well? Nah, I think we will give that a miss.' He also claims to have spoken to famous chef Gordon Ramsay about the possible business opportunity. When Rob and Ryan took over Wrexham, the team were in the fifth tier of English soccer and had been for nearly 15 years But they earned promotion to League Two two seasons later in winning the National League, and they secured a consecutive promotion the year after to take their spots in League One. And it seems the club's owners' work is rubbing off on Snoop. Speaking to the Daily Record, he said: 'I love what Ryan has done with Wrexham. It's just a great story.' Snoop added: 'Investing in a sports team has been something I have been looking at for a long time. If the chance came to invest in Celtic, I would be crazy not to take a look at it. 'I have watched so much soccer in Europe but I have never seen fans like the Celtic fans. There is something so special about them. There is a reason why their fans are talked about across Europe. The best players and coaches in the world tell you there is nowhere like Celtic Park and I want to be a part of that. 'Their mascot is a hound. You couldn't make that up. Snoop Dogg becomes Hoopy the Hound – that's gotta be a match made in heaven. The headlines write themselves.'
