Midweek victory sees Swansea City Women keep the pressure on the leading pair in the Genero Adran Premier title race.

Adran Premier
Swansea City 3-0 The New Saints

Swansea City defeated The New Saints to move seven points ahead of them, sitting just two behind second-placed Cardiff City from a game more and within four of leaders Wrexham.

Aimee Deacon scored with a penalty, Chloe Chivers doubled the lead by half-time, and Ellie Lake completed the scoring eight minutes after the restart.

Adran North
Bangor 2-2 Felinheli (Att: 102)

Jordanne Greenough’s brace had Felinheli two up in 13 minutes, but Menna Evans and Ffion Thomas hit back to level it at 2-2 before the break.

With three minutes of the 90 left, Felinheli’s Llywela Edwards had the chance to win it from the spot but failed to convert.

Bangor move level on points with fifth-place Llandudno, while Felinheli climb to fourth spot.
