Barry Town United stunned The New Saints to lift the Nathaniel MG Cup for the first time in 26 years. Ieuan Owen netted twice as Andy Legg's side went ahead two minutes before half time. The Saints failed to clear Michael George's cross, allowing Owen to bundle home his 15th goal of the season. Craig Harrison's men had goalkeeper Jack Edwards to thank for producing a vital one-handed save to keep out another Owen strike on 75 minutes. But Owen completed his brace from 25 yards out in the first minute of second half added time. Both sides had a player sent off in the final seconds, with TNS' Rory Holden and Barry's Callum Sainty being dismissed. Victory was Barry's third in succession across all competitions and brought an end to the Saints' six-game winning run. The win marked a significant milestone for Barry Town, who had not won the tournament since 1997. The team's performance was impressive, with Owen's goals being the highlight of the match. The New Saints, on the other hand, will look to bounce back from the loss and regain their winning form. Barry Town's win has given them momentum, and they will look to carry this into their upcoming matches. The team's fans will be thrilled with the result, and the win will surely boost their morale. The Nathaniel MG Cup is a prestigious tournament, and Barry Town's victory is a testament to their hard work and dedication.
