United’s best chance fell to Frankie Maguire in the second half, with his 25-yard free-kick nestling narrowly wide.

Boston had previously slipped to a midweek 2-1 defeat at home to Grimsby Town.

The Mariners were making their fourth pre-season visit to Pilgrim Way since the stadium opened to supporters - and ex-Altrincham forward Justin Amaluzor kicked off the scoring in the 11th minute.

Reece Staunton doubled the lead for David Artell's side on the hour mark - before Manni Norkett struck with virtually the last kick of the game, following excellent work from Luca Alonzi.
