Corwen hosted Pwllheli on a chilly November afternoon, but despite the rain showers earlier in the day the game took place in dry conditions on a War Memorial Park pitch that looked in good condition.

The visitors had the first shot on target, but it only warmed the gloves of goalkeeper Tyler French, while at the opposite end after some good build up play Robbie Williams his shot over the bar.

Sam Henry came close to opening the scoring a few minutes later, but he could only curl the ball narrowly wide of the post.

Midway through the first half Calyn Spencer crossed the ball into the Pwllheli penalty area, where Sam Henry headed the ball back across the face of the goal and into the path of Robbie Williams, who headed the ball wide of the target.

Calyn Spencer played the ball across the face of the visitor’s goal, where goalkeeper Guto Roberts initially spilled the ball before
recovering, which enabled him to launch the ball forward to start a counter attack, which bore fruit when Iwan Roberts-Jones played in Steffan Toplis, who was able to find the back of the net to open the scoring.

Half Time

Goal

Six minutes after the restart Tom Weyman collected the ball in space a way out from goal and he opted to loop the ball into the air, which gathered pace and appeared to be going harmlessly over the bar, but dropped suddenly, taking Guto Roberts by surprise, as the ball went over him and into the back of the net to give Corwen the lead.

The away side look for a quick equaliser, but their free kick was saved by Tyler French.

On the hour mark Robbie Williams was able to get a shot on target, but he was unable to get the better of Guto Roberts, who pulled off a good save.

With twenty minutes to play Corwen played the ball out from the back and Sam Henry played the ball across to Tom Williams, who ran at Louis McFarlane before launching the ball at goal, which went over the bar.

Goal

Two minutes later a free kick was played into the Corwen box, where Tyler French scrambled to get his finger tips on to header from Ashley Ainsworth, but could only look on hopelessly as Jack Jones poked the ball into the back of the net with a header.

Sam Henry looked for his second goal of the afternoon from a free kick, but he could only float his effort from distance over the bar.

In stoppage time Tom Williams collected a throw in, but he could only send a tame shot wide of the target, which was closely followed by a shot from Sam Henry, who could only send the ball wide of the goal.

In the last action of the tie Scott Evans was able to get free in the box as he chased a ball from Sam Henry; however goalkeeper Guto Roberts won the race for the loose ball to ensure the game ended as a draw.
