Scala matching a specific node in xml

Question

I have xml that looks like this:

val xml =
<plugins> 
  <plugin type="x">plugin x</plugin>
  <plugin type="y">plugin y</plugin>
</plugins>

I am trying to write a match statement that finds the plugin with the attribute type="x". I tried:

xml match {
  case <plugin type="x">{contents}</plugin> => println(contents)
  case _ => println("not found")
}

but I got a syntax error on the type="x" attribute.

Is there a way to do this match?

Thanks.
