Airbus UK Broughton dropped points at home for only the second time this season as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Guilsfield on Saturday afternoon.
The Wingmakers had a series of opportunities to take the lead as Danny Warren glanced two headers wide of the target, while teenager Kaiden Cooke saw his low drive denied by the woodwork.
They were punished for those misses in the 72nd minute, when Guilsfield took the lead as Jamie Hyne headed home from James Smallwood’s corner for his 14th league goal of the campaign.
Heading for a first league defeat on home turf in almost two years, Airbus found an equaliser eight minutes from time when Jordan Evans’ strike from range bent past everyone and nestled into the bottom corner.
The Wingmakers still have a game in hand over leaders Colwyn Bay but are now four points behind the Seagulls, who won 1-0 against Ruthin Town at Maes Tegid on Saturday.
The decisive moment came in the 22nd minute as Jamie Cumming was left unmarked from Joe Williams’ cross to head home into the top corner.
Bay came close to adding a second late in the day as substitute Lloyd Marsh-Hughes had his effort cleared off the line, but they had to settle for a narrow victory as they extended their unbeaten streak in the league to 23 matches.
Denbigh Town were the weekend’s standout performers as they triumphed 5-0 away at Buckley Town on Saturday.
Nathan Brown put the Reds ahead in style by sending a stunning volley into the top corner from the edge of the area in the 29th minute, before turning provider two minutes later as his corner was headed in by Bobby Beaumont.
Things would get even better for the Reds by half-time as they added two more in quick succession. Alfie Vaughan steered the ball home in the 43rd minute before Sam Duffy raced through one-on-one with James McHarrie and slotted past the goalkeeper in stoppage time.
The game was over as a contest but Buckley did improve after the break, with Max Moore striking the post. Denbigh grabbed a fifth goal in stoppage time as Vaughan netted his second of the afternoon to seal his side’s biggest win of the season.
Llandudno claimed a fifth consecutive away win as they came from behind to beat rivals Bangor 1876 3-2 on Saturday.
Bangor took the lead in the 17th minute courtesy of Tom Clarke’s close-range finish, but Llandudno levelled the contest barely a minute later as Harvey Bennett met a cross from the right and smartly tucked away the equaliser.
Liam Morris’ superb strike from 25 yards restored Bangor’s advantage just before the half hour mark, but Llandudno were again relentless in their pursuit of an equaliser as they had a goal disallowed and Mark Cadwallader hit the woodwork before Bennett popped up to finally make it 2-2 from close range on the stroke of half-time.
The in-form Cadwallader would grab the winning goal just before the hour mark as he guided the ball home from Ben Maher’s free-kick, condemning Bangor to a third straight defeat.

Gresford Athletic continued their impressive form with a fourth consecutive win, triumphing 3-1 away at Mold Alexandra on Saturday.
The Colliers stunned their hosts by scoring three times in the space of six minutes to lead 3-0 with little over half an hour played. Charlie Mann’s curling strike opened the scoring, before Toby Gallagher-Keenan netted a quickfire brace.
Lucas Gregson pulled one back for Mold as he bundled the ball home from Fabrizio Murtas’ corner in the 68thminute, but it proved little more than a consolation as Gresford moved level on points with the Alex in the table.
Penrhyncoch earned back-to-back wins for the first time since November as they triumphed 2-1 over Caersws at Latham Park on Saturday.
Dion Phillips put Penrhyncoch ahead midway through the first half with a close-range finish, but Tommy Rowlands’ 40th-minute equaliser meant the contest was level at the break.
The Roosters’ winning goal came with 69 minutes on the clock as Owain Evans fired in a stunning strike from long-range to condemn Caersws to a fourth consecutive defeat. The Bluebirds are just two points above the relegation zone but have two games in hand over 14th-place Ruthin.

Bottom-of-the-table Llay Miners Welfare scored an equaliser deep into stoppage time as they drew 1-1 at home against Flint Mountain on Saturday.
Mountain went into the game off the back of three consecutive wins and took the lead inside seven minutes at The Ring as Alfie Clark produced a deft lob over Henry Green.
That looked to be enough for all three points, until Welfare top scorer Jonathan Collo popped up to equalise in the 96th minute – his fourth goal in as many games in all competitions.
Like Welfare, Prestatyn Town are edging closer to relegation after they were beaten 1-0 at home by third-place Holywell Town on Friday night.
The decisive moment at Bastion Gardens arrived shortly after the hour mark as Jamie Breese brought down Ryan Edwards’ cross and fired past Robbie Williams for his 20th league goal of the season.
