Llanuwchllyn, who can climb to the top of the table if they produce the goods in their stack of games in hand, notched another vital win, Meilir Williams’ penalty on the half hour the difference between the two teams at Penycae.
There was little to cheer in terms of goals as it ended goalless between Llanidloes Town and visitors Rhos Aelwyd but there were six to celebrate after it ended 3-3 between Brickfield Rangers and Chirk AAA, who led 2-0 at the break through Niall Freeman and Tom Freeman.
The hosts fired back after the break with a couple of goals by Haci Ozlu before the hour but Chirk nudged ahead again when Tom Freeman bagged his brace six minutes later.
Callum Roberts equalised with 15 minutes to go and the result was in the balance until the final whistle.

Third placed Builth Wells survived a late scare at Llandrindod Wells when Ashley Jones scored for the hosts in the closing stages when the Bulls were looking to seal a comfortable win with a couple of strikes by Lyndon Jones.
And it was honours even at 2-2 between Radnor Valley and Kerry, who took a fourth minute lead through Barry Bellis.
