ALL TO PLAY FOR AT FARRAR ROAD

A fiesty cup clash featured six yellow cards, a multi-player scuffle and plenty of lively banter between the fans and respective benches.
The result means Rhyl are now unbeaten in 13 League Cup matches against Bangor, but Nev Powell's side are probably the happier of the two teams being level in the tie going into the second leg at Farrar Road on February 12.
If tonight's game needed igniting it certainly came to life in the ninth minute when Rhyl striker Lee Hunt went in late on Bangor keeper Paul Smith, evoking memories of a similar incident between the two back in November when the Rhyl striker was sent off at Belle Vue.
Both teams had close calls early on, Bangor's Sion Edwards hitting a left-foot screamer just over while Lilywhites midfielder Mark Connolly narrowly cleared the bar with a free-kick.
On 32 minutes Craig Jones' on-target shot for the home team hit Hunt and the ball deflected over the top.
In the 40th minute Jones let fly from 25 yards and Smith produced a fine tip over. Hunt also had a volley kept out by the City custodian, while at the other end Christian Seargeant beat five men in a dazzling run only to see his shot heroically blocked by Matthew Holt.
Early in the second half City top scorer Ashley Stott went desperately close to touching home from close range but soon after Rhyl took the lead.
Michael White won a free-kick on the left which Connolly took, the Bangor defence only partially cleared and Hunt headed in his 19th goal of the season.
Hunt could have had another when he got on the end of a Jones cross, but the ball ballooned over.
The last 20 minutes saw Bangor really have a go at the home defence. Rhyl began to get pushed back and were increasingly reliant on the long-ball counter.
In the 71st minute Michael Walsh was only denied by the legs of Lee Kendall and Lee Webber's follow-up rocket was bravely buffered by Carl Ruffer.
Still, Rhyl looked to be holding on fairly comfortably until on 84 minutes Seargeant's slide rule pass into the box picked out Walsh who turned sharply and buried into the bottom corner.
That was the end of the scoring and now it is all to play for at Farrar Road in two weeks' time.
