The Market is Talking About Recent Football Fixtures
The football scene in the Ardal League South East experienced a mix of triumph and disappointment over the weekend. On Friday, Goytre (Gwent) showcased an impressive performance, defeating Lliswerry with a resounding 6-1 victory. Key players such as Caylam Palmer, Lloyd Oliver, and Chris Ham, who netted a hat-trick, contributed significantly to this win.
However, Saturday brought challenges as adverse weather conditions led to the postponement of two fixtures. Abertillery Bluebirds versus Abergavenny Town and Brecon Corries against Chepstow Town were both called off, leaving only two local matches to proceed. Caldicot Town triumphed over Risca United, while Undy secured a win against Abercarn, with both matches ending in a 3-1 scoreline.
The Monmouthshire Windows East Gwent League was also heavily impacted, with all Division 1 matches postponed. Only one Division 2 match, featuring Chepstow Town 3rds and Tintern Abbey, managed to take place, ending in a 1-1 draw.
In the Gwent Central League Open Cup Round 2, Tranch demonstrated their strength by defeating Mardy Reserves 5-1, with Nathan Price scoring the lone goal for Mardy.
