Flint Town beat Chester 2-0 when they last won the Welsh Cup in 1954

Flint Town United are targeting a first Welsh Cup title in 72 years after confirming their semi-final favourites status in a 5-1 win over Bangor at Go Goodwins Stadium, Llandudno.

Darren Stephenson struck the opener, guiding in from close range and Elliott Reeves added a first-half double, heading in his first and tapping in his second to give the hosts a comfortable 3-0 lead at the break.

Michael Burke broke Bangor's second-half resistance with another tap-in in the 68th minute.

Benjamin Woollam headed in the fifth before Adam Long headed home Bangor's consolation.

Flint will play the winner of Sunday's semi-final in which second-tier Rhyl 1879 take on Caernarfon Town at Colwyn Bay's Blue Turtle Arena (13:30 GMT) hoping for an upset to reach the final at Rodney Parade, Newport on Sunday, 12 April.
