Defender George Cleet, striker Alex Jones and midfielder Samir Nabi put the Baggies 3-0 up inside 21 minutes but Rugby stormed back to reduce the lead to 3-2 on 53 minutes.

Debutant Robbie Burns made it 3-1 before half-time and then Sam Youngs found the net to give his side hope of completing a comeback.

But in-form forward Adil Nabi struck on 63 and 78 minutes for Albion, either side of a goal from Danny Barrow as James Shan's men ran out comfortable winners.
