Cardiff Met 2-1 Newtown: Cardiff Met ended the game with nine men but still managed to hang on for victory against Newtown. An own goal by George Hughes gave the home side an early lead, but Dominic Smith had Newtown level within four minutes from a corner. Jack Veale was sent off in the 17th minute for a dangerous lunge on Josh Lock but Newtown were unable to take advantage. They came closest when Zeli Ismail hit the post with a fine free-kick, only for Met to break the length of the field for Eliot Evans to score the winner. Gruff Morgan became the second home player to see a straight red when the substitute, having only been on the pitch for nine minutes, clattered late into Jojo Harries.
