HAVERFORDWEST COUNTY 1
CARDIFF CITY Xl 4

Starring for the visitors was Kadim Harries, the left-sided midfielder who grabbed a superb hat-trick alongside a fourth goal from striker Pedro Correia.

The Bluebirds scored a late consolation goal through a powerful Sean Pemberton header from inside the box.
