Airbus UK Broughton secured their fourth consecutive victory in the Cymru Premier with a dramatic 3-2 win against Caernarfon Town on Friday evening in a match that featured five goals and a tense finale. According to BBC Sport, the hosts recovered from going level at half-time to take control through a double strike early in the second half, though a late goal from the visitors ensured a nervy conclusion.

Oliver Lansley gave Airbus an early advantage, but Sion Bradley's penalty equaliser before the interval meant the teams went into the break level. The turning point came after the restart when George Peers scored twice in the space of four minutes to put Airbus firmly in command. Zack Clarke's strike late in the match set up a tense finale, but Airbus held firm to claim the points. The victory leaves them seventh in the table on 24 points after 14 matches, according to the BBC standings, sitting one point behind Barry Town United in sixth place.

How did other Cymru Premier sides perform?

Haverfordwest County backed up their previous week's win over Barry Town with an away victory at Ammanford, where they faced a 10-man opposition. Dylan Rees' goal in first-half stoppage time proved decisive in a 1-0 triumph, with Ammanford unable to recover from their heavy 9-0 defeat to The New Saints in their previous fixture. The hosts' evening deteriorated further when Jonathan Evans received a second yellow card and was sent off by referee James Walker in stoppage time.

Barry Town bounced back from their recent loss to Haverfordwest with a commanding 3-0 home victory against Trefelin at Jenner Park. Dan Barton opened the scoring after 15 minutes, and the hosts were awarded a penalty on 29 minutes when Jasper Jones was penalised for his tackle and subsequently dismissed. Elliot Dugan converted from the spot, and Noah Daley extended the advantage before half-time. Despite dominating possession, Barry could not add further goals in the second half but secured a much-needed return to winning form.

Briton Ferry delivered a dominant display to defeat Llandudno 3-0 away from home, extending Llandudno's winless run to six consecutive Cymru Premier matches. Thomas Price's first-half strike set the tone for Ferry's performance, with the contest remaining competitive until the closing stages when Ollie Anderson and Joseph Lloyd sealed the result. The victory moved Briton Ferry to within one point of Llandudno, who have slipped to 10th place in the standings.

Colwyn Bay registered their ninth league win of the season with a 2-0 victory over Cambrian United, extending the visitors' poor form to four consecutive defeats. Josh Williams gave fifth-place Bay an early lead after just 15 minutes, with Callum Bratley doubling the advantage shortly before the hour mark. Cambrian's recent struggles have left them precariously placed, dropping to just two points above the bottom six.

Flint Town United delivered a devastating performance to thrash winless Holywell Town 5-0 on Friday night, continuing their impressive recent form. Ben Hughes gave the hosts an early lead after five minutes, and Isaac Modi doubled the advantage on the stroke of half-time to leave bottom-placed Holywell with a mountain to climb. Flint's dominance intensified after the interval as Tunde Owolabi, Modi, and Lassana Mendes all found the net to complete a comprehensive victory. The hosts' resurgence has been remarkable, with all four of their league wins coming within their last five fixtures.

What are the upcoming fixtures?
