Taylor and Ngwa on target as Diamonds claim their first away win of the season
AFC Rushden & Diamonds claimed a first away win of the season as they saw off relegation rivals Rugby Town 2-0 on Saturday.
Michael Harriman's side stretched theur unbeaten run to three matches, and closed the gap between themselves and safety in the Pitching-In Northern Premier League Midlands Division to 10 points.
It has been a struggle of a season to say the least for Diamonds, but it appears there may be some light appearing at the end of the tunnel.
Cairo Taylor set Rushden on their way with a 35th-minute opener, and then Miguel Ngwa sealed the points just before the hour mark.
Diamonds stay rock-bottom, but the gap between them and Rugby is now nine points, with Gresley Rovers a point better off.
Rushden, who have 15 matches to play this season, return to action next Saturday when they entertain ninth-placed Sutton Coldfield Town.
