Reigning Genero Adran North champions Connah\u2019s Quay Nomads kicked off their title defence with a 5-2 victory away at last season\u2019s runners-up Llanfair United. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nomads took just two minutes to find the breakthrough at Mount Field as Ella Jones received Phoebe Ellis\u2019 threaded pass and made no mistake slotting past Ffion Davies. A superb solo goal from Hannah Slack doubled the lead in the 14th<\/sup> minute as the teenager ran through the Llanfair defence and fired across goal and into the net via the post. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Llanfair fought back and halved the deficit two minutes before half-time when new signing Tania Wylde curled beyond Nomads debutant goalkeeper Meg Bowen. The hosts were then level on 54 minutes when in-form striker Sophie Cook scored her fifth goal of the season already by tapping home the rebound from Emma Williams\u2019 saved effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contest was all square for just eight minutes though as Nomads captain Polly Wild-McGregor opened her league account for the new season by tapping home from Jones\u2019 low cross.\u00a0The visitors sealed victory late on as Aimee Redfern headed in from Ellis\u2019 corner in the 78th<\/sup>\u00a0minute before substitute Megan Galeandro produced a stunning free-kick in stoppage time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flint Town United scored a stoppage time winner \u2013 for the third time in all competitions already this season \u2013 to triumph 3-2 away at Berriew. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Berriew led at half-time thanks to Dottie Evans\u2019 21st<\/sup>-minute goal, but Flint had turned the game around by the hour mark as Zoe Stopford scored twice in the space of 10 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evans netted her second of the afternoon to bring the hosts level on 78 minutes, but they were denied their first point in the Genero Adran North as Jennifer Haynes popped up with the winner for Flint in the 92nd<\/sup> minute when her cross-turned-shot sailed over Sarah Parkes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Felinheli claimed their first win of the campaign with a 2-1 triumph over Llandudno at the Go Goodwins Stadium. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ellie Jones opened the scoring for the visitors inside just seven minutes, before Alaw Huws doubled the advantage midway through the first half. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Llandudno substitute Seren Kerfoot-Robinson scored her first goal for the club in second half stoppage time, but it was too late for the Seasiders to salvage anything from the contest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
