Llandudno defeated Holywell 3:1 in the third round of the Premier League on Thursday evening. The match took place at Llandudno's home ground on August 14th, 2026. By then, Llandudno had already established themselves as a team to beat this season.
K. Smith opened the scoring in the 31st minute, and M. Winslade added a second just before half-time at 44 minutes. D. Sullivan received a red card in the 45th minute plus five, which changed the character of the second period. Holywell managed one goal through M. Cadwallader in the 89th minute, but it came too late.
And here's the thing about the statistics. Llandudno dominated possession with 0.69 compared to Holywell's 0.31. The hosts registered 72 attacks against 57 for the visitors, while shots on target came 4 to 3. Yet possession figures alone don't tell the whole story of how the game unfolded.
Llandudno sit fifth in the table with 22 points from seven games, having won five and lost two. Holywell remain in 16th place with just one point from seven matches. The home side have been on a good run recently, including wins against Flint Town United and Kidsgrove Athletic.
