There was a cracking turnout from Swansea City and Cardiff City supporters and former players for a game in aid of Jason Bowen on Sunday afternoon.
Bowen, who played for Cardiff, Swansea and Newport County, of course, revealed earlier this year the devastating news of his Motor Neurone Disease diagnosis.
His former team-mates, most notably Andy Legg, rallied around to organise a match to raise funds for Bowen, which would be contested between Cardiff and Swansea legends at Penybont FC.
Cardiff's legends included Danny Gabbidon, James Collins, Damon Searle, Graham Kavanagh and Robert Earnshaw, while the likes of Lee Trundle, Andy Robinson, Angel Rangel and Leon Britton turned out for the Swans.
The game, perhaps fittingly, ended a 4-4 draw, which included two stunning goals for Cardiff for John Williams, who then swapped shirts to play the rest of the second half for Swansea.
