Colwyn Bay 0-0 Penybont (3-5 pens): Penybont progressed to the final of the Cymru Premier European play-offs after edging Colwyn Bay in a penalty shoot-out. A cagey first half left neither goalkeeper particularly troubled, with Colwyn Bay’s Jordan Davies coming the closest to breaking the deadlock as he sent a dipping free-kick over the crossbar. Both sides upped the tempo after half-time but without scoring. It came down to a penalty shoot-out, with Davies missing the crucial third spot-kick for Bay, while Penybont scored all five of their efforts with Clayton Green holding his nerve to clinch victory. Rhys Griffiths’ Penybont are bidding to qualify for Europe for the third time.
