Nelson Cavaliers 2nds 2 Llantrisant AFC 1

Sport | Gareth Hill | Published: 16:00, Friday March 7th, 2014.

Nelson Cavaliers’ second team beat Llantrisant with a last-ditch deflected strike just minutes after goalkeeper Matthew Farr saved a penalty.

The deflected Dan Sudale strike wrong-footed Llantrisant’s keeper to put Nelson 2-1 up late in the second-half of the Taff Ely and Rhymney Valley Division 1 match, played on March 1.

Llantrisant opened the scoring after the Cavaliers were caught on the break but the home team responded well and equalised through a Ryan Donovan strike.

Nelson pressed throughout the second half but looked to have lost the game against the run of play when a penalty was awarded to Llantrisant after a reckless challenge in the dying minutes.

But Farr’s heroic save and the deflected Sudale strike won the game for the Cavaliers.
