Caernarfon Town's Flying Canaries Prove Too Good for Colwyn Bay
Caernarfon Town's flying Canaries proved one step beyond their opponents on Saturday, with a thrilling 2-0 win over Colwyn Bay. The Cofis produced a fine display, with manager Richard Davies delivering a first-ever Welsh Cup for Town last season. Davies has earned a contract extension at the club until 2029, and on this form, the Ovalites could well better their best Cymru Premier finish of fourth place this term.
What Happened?
The match began with Colwyn Bay creating chances, but Caernarfon Town's defense held strong. Louis Robles had a free header against the post, and Osian Evans' low drive was saved by Seagulls keeper Mark Halstead. However, it was Daniel Gosset who drilled home left-footed when the midfielder pounced on a loose ball after he had initially attempted to find Evans in the box.
