Bryn Rovers Reserves on verge of Neath league title
The match, part of the Neath and District Football League, took place at Cae Criced in Brynamman on Wednesday evening, April twenty-third.
Rhos opened the scoring with an early penalty and quickly doubled their lead with a header from a corner kick.
However, the home side responded emphatically after the break.
Stuart Woodley pulled one back in the 53rd minute, followed by Julian Jones equalising just ten minutes later.

With this victory, Bryn Rovers sit atop the league, knowing that a win against Neath Town at home on May third will secure the title.
Coed Darcy remains the only team capable of catching them, but any slip-ups could hand the championship to Bryn.
In contrast, the success of the Reserves highlights the struggles of Bryn's senior side, who have finished at the bottom of the Macron West Wales Premier League.
