Mansfield secured their first win in eight league games with a 1-0 home victory over Rotherham.
Rotherham had the wind behind them in the first half but were unable to make it count as Mansfield went in ahead at the break.
The goal came on 27 minutes as a Keanu Baccus free kick was cleared out to Aaron Lewis.
He headed forwards and the ball came off a defender’s head to put Deji Oshilaja clear in goal and he slotted coolly past Dillon Phillips.
The Millers had almost netted on 12 minutes but Mallik Wilks’ effort was too high from a long throw.
Sam Nombe curled a good effort over the angle on 29 minutes and headed straight at Christy Pym six minutes later while Hakeem Odoffin was too high with a header just before the break.
On 49 minutes, Phillips had to smother at the feet of Will Evans as he tried to round him after latching onto a short back pass.
Phillips then had to save a low Lewis effort from 25 yards, who also pulled another low effort wide in another wind-dominated half.
