Andy Jones, Head of Health and Wellbeing at Ysgol Bryn Alyn, said: "This was an exceptional team performance and a real credit to the commitment and attitude of the players. From the first whistle, the boys worked tirelessly for one another, showed excellent discipline and played some outstanding football. While the scoreline is impressive, what pleased us most was the teamwork, sportsmanship and determination shown throughout the match. We are incredibly proud of the way they represented the school and look forward to seeing how they progress in the competition."

The result continues a positive season for the Year 9 side and sees them advance to the next stage of one of Welsh school football's most prestigious competitions.
