Citizens beat Bala to make it Two from Two

Bala Town 2-3 Bangor City

Bangor City joined Port Talbot Town at the top of the table with their second win of the season in a five-goal thriller against Bala in front of the S4C live television cameras.

The Lakesiders took the lead with their first chance of the match when Chris Mason headed his first goal for the club from an excellent John Irving cross from the right with just six minutes played. It was honours even shortly after though, as Mark Powell lunged into Craig Garside just inside the box and Dave Morley scored his second penalty of the season on nine minutes.

Then, a minute later the Citizens were ahead as Chris Jones headed in from close range after Bala 'keeper Craig Vernon could only parry a Sion Edwards cross from the left.

It was 3-1 in the 36th minute when Alan Bull scored his first League goal. A long Paul Smith kick was headed o by Morley into Bull's path and he shook off a challenge from Danny Jellicoe before firing passed Vernon in the Bala goal.

Bala pulled one bacl with four minutes played in the second-half. Nicky Ward lost the ball in an attacking position from a good Mark Jones challenge. The Welsh International made a strong run and found Irving who crossed to sub Neil Fisher who finished well in the bottom right corner.

With twelve minutes to go, Mark Jones brought the best out of Paul Smith with a free-kick from 25 metres out, but the Bangor keeper kept it out.

Carmarthen Town 1-4 Airbus UK Broughton

Airbus UK Broughton claimed all three points and their first of the season with a comfortable win on the road, to inflict a second home defeat on Tomi Morgan at Carmarthen.

Both sides made one change to their starting lineups with former Llanelli skipper Lee Phillips making his debut at right back with Kristian James dropping out for Town and Giovanni Feliciello playing at left-back instead of Rhys Roberts for the visitors, although his day was to end on a bad note as he was sent-off for a second yellow card in injury time.

The Wingmakers made a flying start at Richmond Park as Ryan Edwards converted a seventh minute penalty after Lee Bevan was adjudged to have fouled Carl Owen. The lead was doubled in the 28th mintue as midfielder Danny Desormeaux scored his second of the season, shooting into an open net with 'keeper Mike Lewis stranded. It got even better for Craig Harrison's side with a third goal from Andy Moran, his first for the club.

Just before the break, Tim Hicks pulled one back for the hosts to give the Old Gold hope going into the second-half. The three points were sealed for the visitors when Moran scored his second with five minutes remaining.

Prestatyn Town 1-0 Haverfordwest County

Prestatyn also claimed their first win of the season, as the Bluebirds slipped to a second defeat of the campaign. Matty Collins made his debut for Haverfordwest at Bastion Road, but a 41st minute Lee Hunt goal gave the hosts the lead. The visitors had a fantastic chance to level and score their first goal of the campaign, but striker Jack Christopher missed from the penalty spot.
