Beglan Dragons came back from behind to defeat Llanelli 2-1 in the Welsh Championship South division on Friday evening. The visitors, sitting seventh in the table, took all three points after a fragile start at home to the bottom-placed side. Llanelli led through the first ten minutes before Dragons found their rhythm.
E. Morgan opened the scoring early, giving the hosts a narrow advantage they couldn't hold. By then, Dragons were already looking for answers, and the pressure mounted as the game settled into its rhythm. The home side held their nerve for the opening spell, but football rarely rewards patience for long at this level.
And here's the thing about the second half — Dragons declared their intent when T. Davies stepped up for a penalty in the sixty-third minute. He missed, which kept the scoreline at 1-0, but the momentum had shifted. To be fair, the visitors weren't finished, and they came back stronger after the miss.
A. Dubjaga equalised in the eightieth minute, and then T. Davies struck again four minutes later to complete the turnaround. Two goals in five minutes turned the game on its head, and the visitors celebrated a result that felt deserved after their earlier miss. By then, Llanelli had nothing left to offer.
Llanelli remain rooted to the bottom of the South division with just two points from nine games. Their recent form tells the story — five straight defeats before this loss, including heavy blows against Aberystuith Town and Keraw. The home side needed something to change, and this result won't bring it.
Beglan Dragons move closer to the upper half of the table with this victory, extending their hopes for a playoffs push. They've shown character after that missed penalty, and the coaching staff will be pleased with how the players responded. The gap between seventh and the bottom is widening, and Dragons are making the most of it.
