Saints 5 Gwernyfed 0.

Both sides started this game with several players out injured or away. It was the Saints who started the brighter and Rob Snedden could have put them 1 up early on when he was put through by Sam Powell but he hit  his shot straight at the Gwernyfed keeper. More Hay pressure followed with Gwernyfed looking to counter attack with Rob Macs pace but he was marked very well by Stu Davies and Mike Havard,Phil Davies was finding loads of space down the left flank and one of his crosses was met by Snedz who blasted the ball over the bar from close range. The Saints first goal came on 20 minutes when Kevin Jones scored a 20 yard free kick after Ollie Cooke had been brought down. Cooke made it 2 five minutes later when the Brecon linesman adjudged the ball had crossed the line. Centre back Stu Davies got the third just before half time after getting on the end of a Gavin Williams cross to send the Saints in 3-0 up at the break.

Gwernyfed had their best spell after the break with Bryan Kirkham saving well from Danny Graham, Hay’s back four look solid all night with Gwernyfeds goal scoring opportunities kept to the very minimum.Hay’s two left sided players Davies and Jamie Howard were supporting the attack well and it wasn’t long before the Saints got back in control and Rob Snedden scored the goal of the game by scoring a 20 yard plus free kick to make it 4-0. Tom Weaver and Sam Powell now had total control of the midfield and Weaver should of scored when through one on one with the keeper but his effort went over the bar. Kevin Jones got the Saints fifth goal hitting a low right foot cross come shot past the Gwernyfed keeeper. Jones and Snedden were replaced by Graeme Keeble and Ian Jones for the last 15 and both did well in the time they were on.

This was a very dominant display by the Saints and for me Sam Powell was the best player on the pitch so he gets my man of the match vote.
