A dramatic afternoon at Y Traeth as Rhyl 1879 edge past Porthmadog in the JD Welsh Cup Round of 16 with two big heavyweights from the North Wales football scene. We hear from Gerallt Owen, Porthmadog’s General Manager and Treasurer, on why the Welsh Cup means so much to the club financially and competitively as they chase another deep cup run. Porthmadog captain Kai Jones shares his journey through the junior ranks, his breakthrough at just 16, and what it means to wear the armband for his hometown club. Rhyl 1879 manager Paul Moore reflects on the sheer importance of the Welsh Cup and the dream it carries, a potential route back to European football at Belle Vue. On the pitch, the underdogs strike first as Osian Evans gives Porthmadog the lead, before Jack Parry pulls Rhyl level. Then, deep into stoppage time, Ben Lightfoot delivers the decisive moment to send Rhyl 1879 through. Rocco Hewitt reacts to an afternoon that keeps Rhyl’s cup dream alive. 📍 Porthmadog 1-2 CPD Y Rhyl 1879 🏆 JD Welsh Cup - Round Four ► X:   / cymruleagues   ► X:   / adranleagues   ► Facebook:   / cymruleagues   ► Instagram:   / cymruleagues   ► Instagram:   / adranleagues   ► TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/adranleagues Web: www.faw.cymru #Cymru #Wales #Football #WelshCup #Rhyl #Porthmadog
