Cardiff City & Wrexham reach Bute Energy Welsh Cup final
Wrexham are unbeaten since losing to Swansea City on 19 January [FAW] Cardiff City and Wrexham will face each other in a repeat of last year's Bute Energy Welsh Cup Final. Holders Cardiff followed Wrexham by winning their semi-final on Sunday to book a place in the final at Newport's Rodney Parade on Sunday 27 April. Last season's beaten finalists Wrexham wrapped up a convincing 4-0 win over Pontypridd United in the last four. Abbie Iddenden scored her 10th goal of the season to put Wrexham ahead after just six minutes at Latham Park. Advertisement It went from bad to worse for second-tier United as Lucy Jones turned into her own net before Brooke Cairns scored Wrexham's third - her fourth in this season's tournament - before the half hour mark. Iddenden netted her second of the contest in the 56th minute as Wrexham secured a seventh consecutive win in all competitions. Steve Dale's Pontypridd will now refocus on their league form as they bid to secure an immediate return to the top-flight following relegation last season. The Dragons are three points clear at the top of the Genero Adran South with two matches remaining. Fiona Barry scored the only goal of the second semi-final [FAW] After lifting the Genero Adran Trophy last month, The New Saints were aiming to reach the cup final for the first time. Advertisement And they pushed Cardiff City - cup winners for the past three seasons in a row - all the way. Cardiff goalkeeper Ceryn Chamberlain did well to deny Lexi Jones at the near post while Barry twice went close in the first half. The Bluebirds striker hit the side netting early on before striking the crossbar with a long-range effort. Defender Ffion Price sent a long range effort past the post in first half and saw a free-kick narrowly over the bar. But it was perhaps inevitable that Barry should prove the difference when he crashed home a long-range left-footed effort in the 64th minute. Chantelle Teare and Maria Francis-Jones went close for TNS but they could not end Cardiff City's unbeaten run in the competition that stretches back competition since March 2019.
