Ipswich Town 1-1 Lincoln City

  • Published

Lincoln City kept their automatic promotion hopes alive and Ipswich Town maintained their challenge for a top-six spot following a 1-1 draw at Portman Road.

Morgan Rogers' wonder-strike gave the Imps a half-time lead but Ipswich equalised in the second half with a header from defender James Wilson.

It was Paul Cook's first game at home since becoming Ipswich's new manager - and it was his introduction of three substitutes on the hour that paid dividends.

The visitors came close to taking the lead when Town defender Toto Nsiala turned T J Eyoma's cross onto a post.

But Lincoln's pressure eventually told in the 29th minute when Manchester City loanee Rogers' mazy run and strike from 25 yards beat Tomas Holy all ends up.

Ipswich made a triple substitution on the hour, bringing on Alan Judge, Keanan Bennetts and Troy Parrott for Gwion Edwards, Teddy Bishop and Jack Lankester.

And 10 minutes later Wilson headed home after Luke Chambers had nodded the ball into the six-yard box following a free-kick by Andre Dozzell.
