ST ASAPH City were unable to cause an upset as they fell to a 2-1 defeat at league leading Conwy Borough in the Lock Stock Cookson Cup.
The Saints could not salvage anything from the game despite an impressive first half effort to exit the competition, and they will be hoping for better fortune this Saturday when they host Penrhyndeudraeth.
The home side began the game on the front foot and they took the lead on 11 minutes Jack Hoult found the net following a prolonged period of pressure.
This provoked a strong response from the visitors, who levelled matters soon after when the prolific Jake Walker converted from the spot.
Gareth Thomas’ side managed to get themselves in-front for a second time on 20 minutes, and inevitably it was hotshot Corrig McGonigle who continued his relentless run of form with a well-taken finish.
Despite their best efforts, the City side were unable to find a route back into the contest to condemn them to defeat.
