Bristol Rovers remain without a home win in League One despite clawing back a point against Lincoln in an entertaining 1-1 draw.

Substitute Josh Grant's header in the fourth minute of stoppage time saw the hosts equalise late in the game when the 24-year-old met an Antony Evans corner.

Lincoln took the lead in the 53rd minute through captain Adam Jackson when he bundled home from close range after goalkeeper Matt Cox had palmed out an Ethan Erhahon volley into a crowded area.

The Rovers players claimed that there had been a handball in the build-up when the ball came off Alistair Smith, but referee Lewis Smith disagreed and Jackson capitalised as the ball broke to him.

The home side dominated possession and territory for much of the game, but failed to make the most of several first-half chances.

Jackson blocked a low Aaron Collins effort after Luke Thomas' good run after 15 minutes, and Sean Roughan's sliding challenge stopped Collins volleying home in the 32nd minute.
