Former Guilsfield defender Jon Jones gave Holywell the lead in the first half only to see Adam Jenkins put the sides level on 64 minutes and extra time looked likely until an amazing clos8ng thee minutes.

Steve Lewis thought he had won it for Holywell in the 87th minute only to see Jenkins square things again on 88 minutes and Hamilton win it in the 90th.
