Notts County boss Luke Williams explained how star man Ruben Rodrigues had to be careful during his display against Aldershot at the EBB Stadium.
The Magpies midfielder was on target for the ninth time this season, curling an effort beyond the reach of Luca Ashby-Hammond to put Williams' side two goals to the good in Hampshire.
Rodrigues' strike was sandwiched in between Jim O'Brien and Aaron Nemane's strikes which sent Notts five points clear at the summit of the National League table with both Chesterfield and Wrexham in FA Cup action.
