A GOAL three minutes into added time rescued three precious points for Colwyn Bay in a 3-2 win at Warrinton Town on Tuesday after they had earlier squandered a two goal lead.
The Bay dominated possession in a goalless first half and came closest to scoring just before the break when an Anthony Wright volley skimmed the crossbar.
But they took charge with two goals in the opening seven minutes of the second half through headers from Neil Black and Chris Taylor, from a John Lawless corner.
Hesitancy in the Bay defence, however, allowed Thomas Lamb to pull a goal back with a deflected shot, and when the referee waved away Colwyn Bay appeals for a foul, Warrington substitute Connor Taylor ran on unchallenged to hit the equaliser.
Colwyn Bay laid siege to the Warrington goal in the closing 20 minutes with the referee turning down strong appeals for a penalty for a foul on Wright when he was clean through, and Neil Black had a header cleared off the line.
Warrington keeper Shane McWeeney then twice denied Lawless, but right at the death a long clearance from Jamie Speare was headed on by Wright and Black laid the ball off for substitute Paul Williams to rifle the winner into the roof of the net.
Colwyn Bay: Speare, Wynn, Hoolicken, Callaghan, Taylor, Crowder (Williams 83mins), Fowler, Olsen, Black, Wright, Lawless. Subs not used: Quayle, Rowland.
