Teirw Nant v Wrexham

Wrexham travelled to Teirw Nant, to face a team that ran them close in the cup last year and knew they were in for a tough game. It was a game dominated by defence with both teams determined to keep the opposition scores to a minimum. Wrexham managed to get over the try line half way through the first half off the back of some powerful forward play with captain Jamie Weston providing the finishing touches close to the line. That was the end of the scoring in the first half, Wrexham leading 5-0. The second half proved to be a more one sided affair with forwards Troy Roberts and Christian Burgoyne both crossing the whitewash after sustained periods of attack. Fly half Jacob Hughes added one conversion and a penalty to make the game safe at 20-0. Wrexham should have been going in search of a bonus point but instead found themselves defending, Teirw Nant seemingly with a new lease of life and a new found aggression. Their continued attack led to Wrexham getting 3 yellow cards and making life needlessly hard for themselves in the final minutes. However, defence once again prevailed and a great turnover on their own try line allowed Wrexham to clear the ball and end the game.
