Connah's Quay Nomads 3-1 Barry Town United: Connah's Quay Nomads kept pressure on Cymru Premier leaders The New Saints as they came from behind late on to beat Barry Town United.

Ieuan Owen's fifth goal in nine games put Barry ahead after 19 minutes at Cae y Castell, but Callum West equalised with a quarter of an hour left to give Connah's Quay hope.

Five minutes later Noah Edwards scored Nomads' second before Rhys Hughes sealed the win with a third late on to complete the comeback and close the gap on TNS - whose game against Bala was postponed - to one point.

Barry are sixth and above Cardiff Met on goal difference in the race to secure a place in the Championship Conference for the second half of the season.

The New Saints P-P Bala Town: Cymru Premier leaders The New Saints' game against struggling Bala Town was postponed due to a frozen pitch at Park Hall - the second time the fixture has fallen foul of the weather.
