LLANIDLOES Town secured their JD Cymru North survival with a 3-2 win at home to Mold Alexandra on Good Friday.

The Daffodils went into the game with their second tier status still in doubt but a Jamie Breese double inspired the hosts to a crucial three points to cement survival.

The former Newtown forward broke the deadlock after just five minutes as the Victoria Avenue faithful scented an Easter to remember.

Haci Ozlu's missed penalty just before the half hour mark was further punished when Breese linked with Connor Bird to double his tally moments later.

Bird fired the Daffodils into dreamland to further extend their lead in the opening seconds of the second-half.

Mold were stirred into action and reduced the arrears through Joe Ormrod before the hour.
