Llantwit extend unbeaten run

Llantwit Major extended their unbeaten run in the Cymru South with a 1-0 win over ten-man Ammanford.

This was the third time Major have played the Carmarthenshire club so far this season, having already won at The Rec in the league while being knocked out in the WBS Cup.

Manager Ben Stait was without both Matty Kimmins and keeper Jack Lansdown, who are both in Serbia representing the Cymru South at the UEFA Regions Cup.

The first half at Windmill Lane proved eventful with visiting goalkeeper Josh Hutchings being sent off - but his replacement Luke Martin saving the resulting penalty from Ioan Emanuel.

But Tom Tweedy put Major ahead with what turned out to be the winning goal deep into added time at the end of the first half.

The hosts held their own after the break while Ammanford saw red again when statistician Nick Jones was sent from the dugout - while Llantwit keeper Ryley Allen maintained his first clean sheet for the club.

Llantwit are now up to third in the table and remain unbeaten in their last four league outings as attention turns to the Welsh Cup and next Saturday’s Vale derby at home to Wenvoe club Ely Rangers in the first round (2pm ko)
