Genero Adran North round-up | Connah’s Quay Nomads clinch crucial comeback win

Connah’s Quay Nomads earned a statement victory in the Genero Adran North as they came from two goals down to win 5-2 over Llandudno at the Go Goodwins Stadium on Sunday. 

The Seasiders seemed to be in control of the game as they scored twice in the opening seven minutes through Rebecca Jarvis-Evans and Erin Doran. 

However, Ella Jones scored against her former club to halve the deficit for the Nomads in the 24th minute, before captain Polly Wild-McGregor levelled the scoreline on the stroke of half-time.

Jones completed the turnaround with her second goal of the game just after the hour mark, while Wild-McGregor also struck again 15 minutes later to make it 4-2. 

Substitute Anais Bathily, who had only been on the pitch for two minutes, rounded off the comeback late on to ensure Jordan Parry’s side continued their perfect start to the league campaign and moved six points clear of second-place Llandudno, who have a game in hand. 

Llanfair United moved level on points with Llandudno as they picked up a 3-2 win away at Rhyl 1879 in an entertaining encounter. 

The only goal of the first half came in the 26th minute courtesy of Llanfair’s in-form teenager Paris Schofield. 

Rhyl got back on terms in the 68th minute through Sade Benjamin, who returned to the club from Llandudno last week, but Schofield set up Harriet Davies to restore the visitors’ lead, before Sophie Cook added a third with her fourth goal of the season. 

Rebecca Bannister converted a late penalty for Rhyl, but it was too late for the Lilywhites to take anything from the contest. 

Zoe Stopford’s four-goal haul saw Flint Town United defeat Felinheli 4-1 to make it four consecutive home wins in all competitions. 

Llywela Edwards put Felin ahead just after the half hour mark, but the away side’s lead lasted just two minutes as Stopford brought Flint level. 

The match remained all square for the majority of the second half, but a quickfire double from Stopford around 10 minutes from time saw her complete her hat-trick and give Oli Williams’ side an important lead. 

Stopford completed the scoring in the 90th minute when she finished clinically from Rosie Hughes’ pass, meaning she now has eight goals in her last five matches. 

Bottom-of-the-table NFA picked up their first point of the season in a 1-1 draw with Bangor at Bangor City Stadium. 

Amy Webster’s goal in the 31st minute looked to have been enough for NFA to come away with all three points, but Georgia Lewis-Owen popped up with a crucial 87th-minute equaliser for Bangor. Andy Wright’s side have now drawn three of their first four league matches of the campaign.
