Football: Conwy United FC take TNS to extra time

CONWY UNITED 0 THE NEW SAINTS 2 (AET)

WELSH CUP SECOND ROUND

DESPITE the massive gap between these sides, full-timers TNS needed extra time to see off the challenge of Welsh Alliance minnows Conwy United at the Morfa Stadium.

Musselmen keeper Richard Dolphin was a true hero, saving a first half penalty from Jamie Wood and producing a number of other superb stops.

Craig Williams finally broke the deadlock after 95 minutes when he chased a through ball and lobbed in from 15 yards.

Steve Abbott soon added a second from close range.

Conwy had their moments, Steve Warburton, centre forward Matthew Bennett and Callum Vernon all going close.
