Mold Alexandra secured a comfortable 5:1 victory over Gresford Athletic in the Welsh Championship North, division 7, on Saturday. The away side, already sitting fourth in the table with 14 points, extended their unbeaten run to eight matches. Gresford Athletic remain rooted at the bottom with zero points from six games and have now lost every outing this season.
The visitors opened the scoring inside the first ten minutes. O. Cordiner found the net at the eighth minute, not long after L. Hogan had given the hosts a fleeting lead at the seventh. Cordiner added his second at the seventeenth minute, and the away side were closing in on a comfortable cushion. D. Maher made it four at the twenty-ninth minute, and L. Hogan scored his second for the visitors at the thirty-second.
By then Gresford had nothing to do all evening. L. Gregson rounded off the scoring at the forty-first minute, and the home side simply could not respond. The result was never really in doubt after the first quarter of play, and Mold Alexandra ran the show throughout.
What stands out is the contrast in form. Gresford have conceded fifteen goals in six matches, including heavy defeats to Llanuэхлин, Бала Таун, and Брикфилд Рейнджерс. Mold Alexandra, by comparison, have kept clean sheets in three of their last five outings and are closing in on a top-four finish.
The result leaves Gresford Athletic still searching for their first point of the campaign, while Mold Alexandra move further clear of the relegation zone. One mistake ends it for teams at the bottom, and this match was decided by the visitors' clinical edge.
