Impressive York ran 10-man Rushden ragged as they eased to victory.

Danny Racchi's 25-yard effort set the ball rolling for the visitors before Diamonds' Jamie Day saw a straight red for a lunge on Djoumin Sangare.

Michael Rankine headed a second from Ashley Chambers' cross, before the roles were reversed and Chambers pounced on Rankine's knock-down.

Neil Barrett made it 4-0 from six yards out, while the home side's best chance saw Alan Power volley against the post.
