Mansfield fall short against the best of the rest.
The Derby Church League winners held out for nearly an hour against the League Rep Side but eventually slumped to a 4-1 defeat.
It was 0-0 at half time and ironically the home side had their brightest spell at the start of the 2nd half before Littleover's Prutos broke the deadlock, capitalising on a weak backpass from Denton Williams to round Tom Dowle and score into an empty net.
Within 5 minutes Jordan Glossop had made it 2, beating Gav Record to Sammi's through ball and shooting into the far corner.
Winnie Gibson took advantage of a mix-up in the Rep Side's defence to finish confidently into the roof of the net from 8 yards and give Mansfield hope.
However by this stage in the game the select team were starting to show more dominance, and midway through the 2nd half started peppering shots at the home side's goal.
Record's flick on was finished off by Glossop to restore the 2 goal cushion, and the St. Alkmunds striker completed the scoring and his own hat trick late on. The best move of the game saw Sammi spread the ball out to Paul Hayes whose first time, low cross was controlled and passed into the corner by Glossop.
