Late winner takes Druids 8th!
James Davies came off the bench to fire in a late late winner for Cefn Druids at home to Aberystwyth. The game always looked likely to be decided by one goal, but for large spells of the second half it seemed destined to finish goalless as both sides cancelled the other out.
