But the complexion of the game was changed with two Selston goals in two minutes as Carl Moore and Daniel Henshaw produced headed goals to boost the visitors.

Moore got his second on 52 minutes, but Harworth fought back with a goal from sub Josh Paskell and although they held the balance of play in the closing stages couldn’t come up with an equaliser.
