Tywyn Bryncrug revitalized their campaign in the MMP Central Wales League North with a commanding 5–2 victory over Abermule on March 16, 2024. After struggling to secure just one point from their previous two matches, Tywyn had fallen from the top of the league standings. The result was particularly significant as it narrowed the gap between them and the league leaders, Carno, who faced a setback against Four Crosses, losing 3–0. Both teams have now played 17 matches, leaving Tywyn just three points behind.
From the outset, Tywyn established their dominance in the match. Aaron Rodgers opened the scoring, giving the visitors a well-deserved lead by half-time. Following the interval, Tywyn intensified their efforts, with both Aled Jones and Cullen Rodgers finding the net within the first hour, firmly placing the team in control. Despite Keane Marks scoring for Abermule, Tywyn quickly responded, with goals from Iwan Richards and Nick Williams extending their lead. Although Shayne Kelle added a late goal for the hosts, the outcome was already decided in Tywyn’s favor.
The weekend’s matches further intensified the title race. Four Crosses’ impressive victory over Carno was marked by goals from George Lloyd, Rueben Coslet-Hughes, and Isaac Dawson. This win positioned Four Crosses as serious contenders in the league. In contrast, Dolgellau Reserves faced a challenging outing, suffering an 8–0 defeat to third-placed Llansantffraid Village. Dolgellau’s struggles were evident as they conceded early goals from Elijah-King Richards and a Jac Kelly own goal. A penalty from Huzaif Abubakari added to their woes, while Richards completed his hat-trick in the second half, joined by goals from Delcio Jaime Neto, Callum Wilson, and Alexandro Mane Intchasso.
Meanwhile, Waterloo Rovers maintained their strong form with a decisive 7–2 win over Dyffryn Banw. Adam Gough led the scoring with a hat-trick, complemented by contributions from Sam Evans, Matthew Brasenell, Benjamin Pugh, and Jake Mantell. The hosts managed to score twice through Efan Davies, but it was not enough to change the outcome.
The weekend concluded with a thrilling finish for Montgomery Town, who clinched a 3–2 victory at Forden United. Jack Williams secured the win with a stoppage-time goal, following a dynamic performance in which teammate Jake O’Donnell had scored twice, only to see his efforts cancelled out by Williams before the decisive strike.
As the league progresses, Tywyn Bryncrug’s resurgence, along with the surprising results elsewhere, promises an exciting conclusion to the season ahead.
