Genero Adran South round-up: Llanelli relegated after defeat to Cwmbran Celtic

Llanelli Town were relegated from the Genero Adran South after a 5-0 defeat to Cwmbran Celtic at Stebonheath on Easter Sunday.  

Llanelli needed a victory to have any chance of survival, but fell behind on the stroke of half-time as Chelsea Cochrane put Celtic ahead. That opened the floodgates for the visitors in the second half as Cochrane’s second goal of the afternoon and Fiona Anthony’s strike made it three by the hour mark.  

Cerys Shipley and Anthony scored late goals to wrap up a convincing display from Celtic, who secured a third-place finish and their highest ever points tally in the Genero Adran South.  

Champions Cardiff Met celebrated their trophy lift by coming from behind to triumph 2-1 over Pure Swansea at Cyncoed Stadium.

Cardiff Met will hope to bounce straight back at the first attempt to the Genero Adran Premier

Swans forward Kalena Walters-Wright scored her fifth goal in as many games to give her side the lead heading into the break, but Met’s star striker Esme Kilburn-Thompson equalised just past the hour mark with her close-range header from Olivia Jones’ corner.  

The Archers completed their comeback in the 73rd minute as Anna Houghton bagged her sixth league goal of the season.  

Jonathan Nash’s side finish their campaign having lost just once and will now look to return to the Genero Adran Premier in their Promotion Play-Off Final against Connah’s Quay Nomads at the end of April.

The Swans challenged Met at the top of the table for the majority of the campaign, but have to settle for a sixth-place finish following a fourth straight defeat.  

Emse Kilburn-Thompson finished top goal scorer in the league with 13 goals

Carmarthen Town claimed the runners-up spot in their debut season in the second tier after storming to a 7-2 victory over Taffs Well at the LHP Stadium.  

Summer Evans’ free-kick got things rolling for the Old Gold before Jasmine Guymer and Ophelia Jenkins both bagged clinical braces to make it 5-0 at the interval.  

Rianne Jones and 16-year-old academy star Alys Grant pulled two goals back for the Wellwomen, but Aimee Heath’s first goal since January and Flavia Jenkins’ finish into the top corner from Casi Jones’ pass ensured Carmarthen achieved their biggest win of the season.
