Cwmamman 2 Longford 1
With Longford without a single point and Cwmamman without a home win all season, something was going to have to give in this potential banana skin of a match in front of a large crowd at Grenig Park.
Cwmamman came flying out of the blocks and should have been at least three or four goals to the good within the first twenty minutes but some dreadful finishing, some bad luck and some superb goalkeeping, Longford somehow managed to escape this early onslaught unscathed.
With Cwmamman growing in confidence and completely dominating, it came as a massive shock when the visitors broke clear down the right wing and after some poor defending, scored completely against the run of play.
Chances kept coming and going for Cwm and it was beginning to look like it was going to be one of the days for long periods.
Infact, it took a couple of great saves from Cwmamman keeper Wayne Neal to stop Longford extending their lead.
The equalising goal did eventually come however when a well placed Brendan Nicklin free kick was floated into the danger zone and Jonathon Morgan rose above the crowd to flick a deft little header in at the near post to the delight of the home fans.
Longford still looked dangerous on the attack with their skilful winger and lone striker causing all sorts of problems for the Cwm defence.
The winner came with ten minutes remaining when Andrew Stevens, who managed to last the ninety minutes without pulling one of his muscles, hit an accurate shot on the turn that dribbled in to the bottom corner which prompted some wild, orgasmic scenes of celebrations from the home team and fans.
This was a really exciting game of football with Longford giving a great performance and will be disappointed to come away in the end with nothing.
Next week Cwmamman are home again, this time against Tonna who are flying at the top of the division. Kick off 2.30pm
