Boston United 1-3 Grimsby Town

The Mariners ultimately proved too strong at The Jakemans Stadium and prevailed courtesy of a double strike from Padraig Amond and a header from ex-Pilgrim Shaun Pearson.

Kaine Felix had drawn United level two minutes into the second half, but Grimsby's quality shone through to clinch a deserved victory.
