Bont set course for second spot
And to close second to Welsh Premiershipbound Barry would form the best finish for Bridgend football since Bryntirion Athletic became Welsh League champions back in 2011.
However, they survived an early score after Goytre won a shock ninth-minute penalty, following a Rhys Griffiths challenge, that goalie Rhys Wilson saved to the disappointment of Josh Brown.
Bont responded with a Marcus Griffiths header hitting the cross bar, and two Cullen Kinsella efforts also just missed the target.
But the Bridgend super club went ahead on 42 minutes when Marcus Griffiths latched on to an Adam Carpenter screwed shot.
He got the measure of Goytre goalkeeper Nick Thomas to secure a 100th team goal of the season, and 21 against his name.
The sides changed ends with Bont a goal up, but Goytre went on to win a higher percentage of second-half possession.
And it came as no real surprise when they levelled in the 76th minute, ball after promotion rivals Caerau were beaten, 1-0, at the Riverboat by Treowen Stars.
It forms a wonderful achievement for Karl Lewis and his merry men after last time around just missing out on the Promised Land.
But it doesn’t end there, as quite naturally chief Windmiller Lewis wants the club to go up as champions.
During this midweek encounter, Bridgend Street were ultimately Lewis Summers converting a sunny Brown cross.
But new Bont are now made of sterner stuff, and streets behind the buoyant Windmillers.
Though the men from the capital were well equipped in physicality, they weren’t too clever going forward.
Llantwit Major took a 20th-minute lead when fox in the box Luke Cox made good ground down the left touchline.
He left a marker for dead and when the cross came in, Gareth Davies got a sixth goal of the season. they rallied during final knockings going down the Sony end.
And after Josef Hopkins
Rhys Llewellyn then clipped a post, on the end of a Connor Goldsworthy corner, and it was 1-0 at the changeover.
Early in the second period, Goldsworthy almost doubled the lead, but things remained the same until the 75th minute.
This time Rob Jones opened up a Street barricade, and Goldsworthy rolled in a second goal for the club.
However, it wasn’t exactly plain sailing because nearly scored, a fifth Bont goal from Owain Warlow in the 89th minute gave them all three points. the Cardiff side pulled a goal back on 78 minutes via substitute Jason Martin.
That left the Windmillers with an anxious wait to close out the win, but young Sammy Snaith twice failed to exploit openings.
But deep into time added on for stoppages, an unsavoury incident led to red cards for both substitute Thomas Dante (on for Cox) together with Street defender Richie Noyes.
