Nantwich showed why they are top scorers in the league early on, fashioning a chance for Josh Hancock to head against the bar from Liam Shotton's cross

Jake Heath scuffed a 20-yard shot wide of the target for Rushall but Nantwich came close again, hitting the bar for a second time through Jon Moran.

However, it was the hosts who took the lead in the 36th minute thanks to Alex Reid, who glanced in a diving header.
