Date 26th January 2010
Venue - Afan Lido, Aberavon

                                  Weather - drizzly but mainly dry
                                  Pitch - sticky but OK

Our thanks go to Afan Lido for agreeing to host this home match for Ponty against Garden Village.

On what turned out to be a great night for Pontardawe, both teams produced some good football on a difficult pitch. Ponty took the lead from an unfortunate own goal went into the half time break 1-0 up. Liam James put Ponty two up with a great volley just after the restart but Village soon stuck back with a superb strike to make it 2-1. Rhys Whitlock then got Ponty's third following a great run. Village did not lie down and came close to reducing the deficit on a couple of occasions - they eventually got back into the game following a spot kick after their striker was brought down in the box to make it 3-2. Almost straight from the kick-off Ponty got their fourth from Chris Allan after his shot took a deflection and beet the Village keeper. Ponty now settled again and played some great football which eventually lead to Chris Allen getting his second and Ponty's fifth to wrap up the game.

All in all a great win against a good Village side who will be up there challenging for the title come the end of the season.
