Whanganui Athletic with a big 3-2 upset win against Taradale. 

Taradale up 2-0 and cruising, before Athletic grabbed one back. A short time later the Athletic centre back was sent off for DOGSO (good call in my opinion).

But that seemed to rally Whanganui and they started playing brilliantly, couple of quick goals and then they managed to comfortably handle a Taradale long ball onslaught. Great and well deserved win. 

I also think a Taradale player was sent off with a few minutes to go, but I was distracted. 

I thought Taradale were playing well and cursing, after the red card for Whanganui, they made 4 substitutions.
Which I found strange and I thought dramatically altered how they played
