Airbus to tackle Corwen in big cup semi-final clash
The likes of Danny Warren and George Peers have taken much of the plaudits for the Wingmakers this season, but it was Nathan Williams (pictured above) who grabbed the decisive goal as Airbus beat Trefelin 3-2 to lift the Cymru Cup.
This followed Airbus winning the Cymru North Cup and also in their sights is the North East Wales FA Cup, with the Wingmakers heading to The Globe, in Buckley, for tonight's semi-final with Ardal League Corwen.
Boss Allen told the club's YouTube channel: 'For Nathan to score, you know, he's come in this season from Gresford and been fantastic for us. Particularly as a defender, obviously, but he's grabbed some important goals for us as well. So, I'm delighted for him.'
Corwen go into the game on a back of a stunning 6-0 win at Pwllheli where Pat Hinchcliffe hit a hat-trick and top scorer Sam Henry bagged his 20th goal of the season.
Tonight's winners will take on Holywell Town in the final.
