Flint Town United, Welsh Cup winners in 1954, are through to the last eight of this season's competition after a dramatic 4-3 penalty shootout win at fellow Cymru Premier club Penybont. The game was intense from the start, with Bont being reduced to 10-men after just seven minutes when striker Chris Venables was shown a straight red card. Following a goalless 90 minutes, the game went straight to penalties and Flint's Jake Phillips scored his side's winning penalty after Mael Davies had failed to convert his kick.
