Season to forget for Caernarfon
CAERNARFON Town ended a miserable return season in the Welsh Premier Women’s League with a 3-0 defeat at home to Llandudno last Wednesday.
The game also marked the farewell appearance of Tudno defender Jemila Bukari, who is returning to her native Ghana.
Elegant defender Bukari has played for the club since it joined the Welsh Premier and was a League Player of the Season contender in 2014/15.
Last week’s clash was a game of two halves.
Caernarfon started well, their game plan very evident right from the start. They sat deep and made it difficult for Llandudno to play their normal game.
The visitors did have some chances but Canaries goalkeeper Elena Julio was in fine form in a goal-less first half.
Llandudno picked it up in the second half but Caernarfon initially stood firm.
The visitors then brought on top-scorer Louisha Doran and she broke the deadlock with a fine finish after a brilliant pass from Mari Gibbard.
Llandudno then intensified their pressure and this time Doran turned provider as she sent a brilliant cross in, which was converted into a goal by Jordanne Greenough.
Caernarfon had earlier had a chance to equalise through Catrin Thomas before Llandudno scored their second.
With a few minutes left game-changer Doran made it 3-0.
Caernarfon finished next-bottom in the table with just one win under their belts all season.
