Cai James put United ahead, lead they held until twenty minutes from time when Josh Hobbs came off the bench to draw Airport level ane then with 8 minutes remaining put the home side in front. Lee Stradling then hit the Airport’s third in the 90th minute before Mitchell Stimson Jagger pulled back a very late consolation for Utd.

• Cwm Talwg came out on the right end of a ten goal thriller as they came from behind to beat Cogan Coronation 6-4. Talwg were 2-3 down at half time but rallied and goals from Cole Roberts, Dafydd Jones and Jordan Yeoman saw Talwg get the important three points.
