The all-MMP Central Wales League North final was evenly contested from the first whistle as the Magpies sought a second title and Trewern bid to lift the cup for the first time. Euron Roberts headed over after 11 minutes before Pete Young dragged an effort wide five minutes later. Trewern had strong penalty appeals rejected when Warren Roberts was upended in the area but referee Huw Jones waved play on. Barmouth ended the half on top with Young and Joe Soar off target before Joey Jones rattled the woodwork from 25 yards. Trewern goalkeeper Lee Andrew's blushes were spared when he fumbled a corner from Soar but the loose ball was hacked clear of the line as Barmouth started the second-half on top. Andrew had to be on his toes to tip another Soar corner over the bar before the same player saw his 25 yard free-kick saved as the Magpies sensed a breakthrough was imminent. Instead it was the Tigers who led on 72 minutes after George Clifton fired home from the edge of the area. Dan Morris headed wide as Trewern came close to doubling the lead but Barmouth made the most of the reprieve by levelling seconds later as Soar volleyed home. A frantic finale saw Andy Gwilt denied by the offside flag and Roberts test goalkeeper Rhys Williams for Trewern while Andrew was tested by Soar at the other end. The match was destined for penalties as Williams denied Stuart Buckley-Robins and Ieuan Brooks held his nerve to convert the decisive spot-kick as Barmouth celebrated a 5-3 win.
