Carlton Town picked up a third win of pre-season with a 2-1 success against Lincoln Utd at Stoke Lane.
In an entertaining game played in front of a good crowd, the Whites had an early opportunity to score when the Millers cleared off the line.
Carlton’s Niall Hylton brushed the bar with a fine shot before ex-Miller Jack Steggles saved well from Lewis Durow.
The Millers made eleven substitutions at half time and took the lead three minutes after the restart when Callum Foster headed a Joel Daft corner into his own net.
Romello Nangle doubled the lead on 66 minutes from the penalty spot after he was brought down by Steggles.
Foster reduced the arrears 10 minutes from time with a header into the right net but Carlton saw out the remainder of the game to add to their wins against Sandiacre and Basford.
The Millers are back in action on Saturday when Merthyr Town are the visitors to Stoke Lane (3.30pm).
