Llantwit Major began 2026 with a goalless draw at home to Baglan Dragons in the Cymru South.

Kick off for the first game of the year at Windmill Lane was delayed after the pitch passed an early inspection.

The first half produced few chances from both sides, while after the break, Tom Stokes nearly broke the deadlock for the hosts, only to be denied by a fine save from Baglan keeper Aaron Ryan.

Ioan Emmanuel also went close from a free kick, while keeper Ryley Allen maintained a clean sheet after withstanding some late pressure from the visitors.

Llantwit slip to tenth in the table as attention turns to next Saturday's visit to Ynyshir Albions, who lost 2-0 at high-flying Ammanford.

Caerau Ely beat near neighbours Cardiff Draconians 2-1 on Friday night - with all three goals scored from the penalty spot.

Tom McLean put the hosts ahead on 41 minutes after a Oscar Raisbeck foul, before Exauce Dimonekene gave away a spot kick for Dan Bowen who equalised in the 81st minute.

An increasingly scrappy affair, which saw ten yellow cards dished out by referee Dale Randall, was decided in the 92nd minute after a Marinho Manga booking led to McLean scoring the winner.

Cambrian United stretched their lead to eight points following a 1-0 win over Pontypridd United on New Year's Day, while Aberystwyth drew 1-1 with Carmarthen.

Cwmbran Celtic remain bottom of the table after a 2-1 defeat at home to Treowen Stars, while the game between Trethomas Bluebirds and Newport City was frozen off.
