SAINTS 2 LLANDRINDOD WELLS 4.

Llandrindod Wells left Forest Road last night with 3 points after completing the double over The Saints.

It was tough for both sides to play football with a very strong wind blowing across the pitch. The Saints saw more of the ball but it was Llandod who looked the more likely to score hitting them on the counter attack with their pacy players causing the homesides back four problems in all areas of the defence. It was a mistake by a Saints defender who lost the ball and the Llandod player made no mistake in opening the scoring after 15 minutes, worse was to come when recent new signing Ben Jones twice got infront of his marker and headed two cracking goals to give his a side 0-3 lead after just 30 minutes, The Saints only reply in the first half was a Gavin Williams volley from a Kevin Jones cross which clipped the top of the bar ht 0-3

The Saints came more into the game in the second half but still found a well organised Llandod defence hard to breakdown and after 65 minutes found themselves 0-4 down when another missed tackle let them in for goal number 4.

The Saints did have a mini comeback led by substitute Tom Weaver who came on full of fight and tricks, his throughball finding Gavin Williams who in turn whipped over a cross which top scorer Josh Wisniewski finished well form 10 yards, the same players combined this time Williams cross was headed past the away keeper by one of his own players, the second goal coming just after another Weaver led attack which resulted in at least 4 goal line clearances in a matter of 20 mad seconds. The second goal coming with just a couple of minutes left on the clock there wasn’t enough time for anymore goals with the ref blowing up for fulltime with the score 2-4.

Llandrindod fully deserved their victory, that’s 3 very tough games we’ve had with them season. They did start panicking once we started pressing but it was way too late to get anything out of the game.
