Llanfair United celebrate Central Wales Cup triumph

Llanfair United lifted the Central Wales Women's Cup for only the second time in their history following a 3-0 win over Berriew in Welshpool on Thursday night. Jodie Carswell dragged wide before United opened the scoring when Emma Williams latched on to a through ball and maintained her composure to finish past Berriew goalkeeper Sarah Parkes. Parkes denied Sophie Cook before the North East Wales League champions-elect upped their game with ex-United favourite Gemma Jones testing goalkeeper Ffion Davies.

Llanfair ended the first-half on top with Paris Schofield and Cook going close. It was a similar story at the start of the second-half with Williams firing wide before Llanfair doubled their lead from the penalty spot with Schofield converting. Jones was denied by Davies while Harriet Davies blasted over at the other end as Llanfair sought to put the game to bed. The Mount Field club completed the scoring with 15 minutes remaining when substitute Becky Jones raced into the penalty area before lifting the ball over Parkes. Llanfair could have added to their tally with player-manager Lucie Gwilt heading wide before Williams and Jones was denied by ex-TNS custodian Parkes.
