Rushden & Diamonds ended their pre-season training camp on the Algarve in style.
They recorded a 1-0 victory over Coca-Cola Championship side Bristol City thanks to a first-half goal from Dean McDonald.
Diamonds boss Garry Hill said: "It was a very good work-out and the boys did well.
"Bristol City were very strong. You've got to remember they were competing for a place in the Premier League about two months ago in the play-off final at Wembley.
"They played a full first-team squad against us. So, even though people always say results don't really matter in pre-season, this gives us a big boost."
