Sunday 13 September 2009
Berriew v Mold CYMRU Alliance high-flyers Llangefni and Penryhncoch both reached the second round of the Welsh Cup.

Two other sides were beaten by clubs from lower down the pyramid, Buckley Town crashing 3-2 at Barmouth & Duffryn United.
Denbigh Town lost 2-1 at Glan Conwy while Holyhead Hotspur needed extra-time to win at Overton Rec. The hosts took the lead before Kenleigh Owen missed a penalty for Hotspur, Steve Matthews and Mel McGinness grabbing the goals.
Lex XI mounted a stirring comeback from 1-3 down to beat Dolgellau Athletic 5-3. David Edwards netted a hat-trick for the Amateurs, but goals from Kevin Roberts, Joe Garner, Scott Roberts, Tim Nunnerley and Shaun Dodd saw the Lawmen gain the verdict.
Barry Town's hopes of a cup run were dashed in a thumping 5-1 home reverse at the hands of Ely Rangers while Bettws fell 2-0 at lower league Caerau Ely.
Welsh League first division Dinas Powys went out 2-1 after extra-time at Spar Mid Wales League outfit Hay St Marys.
