Aberystwyth Town 2 Haverfordwest County 2

HALF TIME

Aberystwyth are looking to bring down the curtain on their Park Avenue campaign with a flourish against The Bluebirds tonight.

And it’s honours even at the break with both sides scoring late in the half to make it 2-2.

A scrappy start to the game saw both teams struggle to get to grips with heavy West Walian winds but The Seasiders surged on eight minutes with a sublime goal.

Central defender Louis Bradford threaded a ball through to Owain Jones who spotted the keeper off and calmly clipped the ball into the back of the net from over 30 yards out.

At the other end, County had their first attempt on goal when ex-Seasider Elliot Scotcher fired a free kick into the hands of Connor Roberts.

The visitors were growing into the game without troubling the home keeper before Jamie Reed tried to double the Black & Greens tally with a volley that sailed wide.

County should have been back on level terms on the half hour when Scott Tancock headed straight at Roberts after good work by Scotcher but equalised moments later, Jack Wilson running on to a low cross to finish in the bottom corner.

Reed nearly restored the hosts lead when he fired another effort wide but he made amends two minutes from the interval, smashing home a penalty after Harry Franklin was scythed in the area.

However, there was still time for Haverfordwest to reply, Danny Williams waltzing through the defence to curl it into the far corner.
