Welsh Cup: Connah's Quay beat Llanelli to reach final
Holders Connah's Quay Nomads came from behind to book their place in the Welsh Cup final with a 2-1 victory over Llanelli Town in Aberystwyth. Connah's Quay's Rhys Hughes hit the crossbar from a free-kick early on. Following Kris Owens' foul on Taylor Jones, Liam Eason notched up his eighth goal in all competitions since joining Town in January to put Llanelli ahead from the penalty spot in the 26th minute at Park Avenue. But the Nomads levelled proceedings 47 seconds after the restart as Callum Bratley threaded through to Max Woodcock, who coolly slotted into the net. And they completed the turnaround four minutes later as Bratley lashed into the net from 10 yards after Cymru South leaders Llanelli failed to clear from a cross. Scott Coughlin produced a fine save to deny Nomads captain John Disney from close range before George Ratcliffe kept out Bradley Gibbings' effort at the other end. And the Cymru Premier side held on for victory to keep their hopes of retaining the trophy alive as they seek to win the tournament for a third time. The Nomads will face the winner of Sunday's semi-final between newly crowned 2024-25 Cymru Premier champions The New Saints and Cymru South side Cambrian United. The final will be held at Newport's Rodney Parade on Sunday, 4 May.
