Newport County beat Undy 1-0 thanks to Glennon header
The Exiles started pre-season with a 1-1 draw at Pontypridd United after a clanger by Jacob Carney and they followed that up with a single-goal success at their Ardal South East hosts. Anthony Glennon headed the only goal of the game from summer signing Lee Jenkins' cross in the second half. County gave minutes to most of their squad with new goalkeeper Nik Tzanev, a signing from Northampton, making his first appearance since arriving from international duty with New Zealand. Striker Courtney Baker-Richardson and midfielder Keenan Patten featured after missing the Ponty game but centre-back Ciaran Brennan and winger Michael Spellman, who suffered a groin strain in the warm-up in midweek, sat out the fixture Forward Bobby Kamwa, centre-back Matt Baker and Baker-Richardson went close in the first half while teenage forward Moses Alexander-Walker, Glennon, Michael Reindorf and Cameron Evans were denied after the break. County step things up with a full week of training before Saturday's trip to Worcester City, a fixture that is followed by a midweek game at Weston-super-Mare and a clash at Torquay. The Exiles get the real stuff under way on Tuesday, July 29 when they head to Barnet in the preliminary round of the Carabao Cup before a Rodney Parade opener against Notts County in League Two the following Saturday.
