It wasn’t long before Jenkins got his second goal to reduce the deficit. Two red cards soon followed for Woods of Briton Ferry Llansawel and Ammanford’s Kai Whitmore.

Both Goalkeepers, McFenton for Ferry and Morris made good saves but enter man of the match Tristan Jenkins to pop with that all important late winner!
