THE pre-match Stactics suggested this would be a close affair. And so it proved to be, with 80 minutes of play distilled to a final deciding kick after the clock had gone red.

Rosslyn Park survive late scare in a classic

Ryan minute try set up a match-winning kick for Tighe Maxwell-Whiteley but the Moseley fly-half's shot flew wide.

Roach's last Rosslyn Park head coach Steve Neville was complimentary of the home team and was grateful to be on the right side of a tight game. He said: "It was a cracking game and a great advert for National One rugby."

Moseley started the brighter, their pack showing early dominance. Following a series of rucks at close range, the ball was passed to the left wing for Aquile Smith to run into the corner, but Maxwell-Whiteley's conversion attempt fell short.

Following the restart Park applied Rosslyn pressure on the home defence and a pass to the left wing found Benjamin Marfo, who was too quick for the defenders to touch down, Joshua Bragman adding the extras.
