PWLLHELI moved up to fifth in Lock Stock Welsh Alliance Division Two with a late 3-2 victory at Llandudno Junction.
The promotion hopefuls had to dig deep after blowing a two-goal advantage to the improving Railwaymen heading into the closing stages, but they managed to snatch a dramatic three points that moves them above Kinmel Bay in the standings.
Pwll’ will be hoping to build on this positive result when they next take the field at home to the Bay on January 2.
A strong start from the away side saw them take the lead on the quarter hour mark when Jamie Lee Banks found the net, and they managed to extend their cushion just before the break when Dafydd Gwyn Jones finished well with 36 on the clock.
After the break saw the home side increase their level of performance considerably and find a route back into the game, with Harry Parker Smith halving the deficit with a well-taken chance on 63 minutes.
Junction restored parity to the score-line late on when Jack Williams’ superb strike found the target with five remaining, but their hopes of another point were dashed with 88 on the clock as Jones pounced for his second of the afternoon to give Pwll’ the victory.
Barmouth and Dyffryn United’s home encounter against Kinmel Bay and Y Felinheli’s clash with Llannefydd both fell victim to the adverse weather conditions.
