DOLGELLAU suffered cup heartache as they lost out to a stoppage time winner at Cefn Albion.
The Wasps had shown superb application throughout with the tie seemingly heading towards a penalty shoot-out when the hosts Nathan Williams made an instant impact from the bench to net the winner in the 92nd minute.
A hard fought encounter with little between the two teams at Clywedog Park was goalless until the 84th minute when Dion Gibbins gave Cefn the lead.
Showing tremendous heart, Dolgellau came roaring back two minutes later when Gerwyn Williams powered a header past home keeper Torne Samuels.
Dolgellau return to league action on Saturday when they welcome Llanfair to the Marian.
