Colwyn Bay secured a dramatic 1-0 victory over Haverfordwest County AFC with a stoppage-time goal from D. Roberts on Saturday. The 93rd-minute strike extended the team's winning run to four matches and lifted them to 19 points from 10 games in the Cymru Premier, where they currently sit sixth.
Key moments
The match was a tight affair, with the decisive moment arriving deep into added time. Colwyn Bay manager Michael Wilde made five substitutions to influence the game, including a triple change on 65 minutes that saw A. Davies, E. Roberts and J. Williams enter the fray. Haverfordwest's K. McCarthy was shown a yellow card in the 79th minute, and the visitors made just one change throughout the contest. The late winner from Roberts, who came on as a substitute, proved the difference.
League context
The result solidifies Colwyn Bay's strong recent form, which now reads four wins from their last five outings. With 19 points, they are just three points behind the cluster of teams in the places above them. Manager Michael Wilde highlighted the team's consistency, noting his record since taking charge. "He has taken charge of 85 matches so far, winning 51 and recording an impressive average of 1.95 points per game," Wilde said. The win provides momentum ahead of their next home fixture against Cambrian & Clydach on 30 October.
