Match Report
The Dabbers took the lead in the 13th minute when a cross from the left from Perry Bircumshaw was headed in by top scorer Alex Panter. A towering header from Panter for his 20th league goal of the season and 26th in all competitions.
He finishes tied 3rd in the NPL West Golden Boot and with 26 has recorded the most goals in a single season by a Nantwich player since Aaron Burns in 2013/14. And all this in his first full season at Step 4.
The biggest worry defensively came when a Kobe McWilliams header that looked goalbound was hooked off the line brilliantly by Kelvin Mellor.
Nantwich had a few chances to extend the lead before Fenton Green was able to make it 2-0 just past the hour mark. A smart Dabbers move that involved Byron Moore, Panter and Byron Harrison, the latter put it on a plate for Green to score first time past Greg Hall for his 4th goal of the season.
