Two goals by Craig Jones sealed a well deserved win against Dinas Powys who had previously won both their  away matches.

In a much changed side from last Friday, Karl Lewis, Carl Evans, John Felton and Liam McCreesh all missed the game. Chris Latham, Craig Martin, Craig Jones and Matt Lavis made the starting line up while there was a first appearance on the bench for Neil Hendra.

Not surprisingly it took some time for us to settle, Paul Evans with a header from a corner on 12 minutes was our first real attempt and even that failed to test the keeper. On 23 minutes Chris Latham was felled in the box but the ref waved play on but 3 minutes later we took the lead. 

Paul Evans played a long ball over the visitor's defence and Craig Jones beat the offside trap and with the keeper racing out of his goal, coolly slotted the ball over the keeper's head into the unguarded net from 25 yards.

On 36 minutes Craig Martin carried the ball forward and shot from all of 30 yards, the keeper managed to claw the ball from under the bar.  Craig Jones put the ball back in the danger area and Chris Latham got a touch which the keeper scrambled against the post.

Although the visitors had their fair share of possession they failed to trouble Brian in goal. 

Ian Jones pulled up with what seemed a hamstring problem on 62 minutes and was substituted by Neil Hendra. 

On 74 minutes we scored on of our best goals this season.  

With a visiting defender looking to shepherd the ball for a goal kick, Greg Hurley won the ball and crossed it, the ball was headed clear and was being carried clear by a defender. Craig Jones didn't give up the chase and nicked the ball off the defender about 35 yards from goal.  He played it forward to Shaun O'Leary and continued his run, Shaun found him in space just inside the area and Craig side footed past the keeper as he came out to narrow the angle.  

It was a goal worthy of winning any match and eased us over the finishing line for 3 more points.
