Imps managed just two shots on target so this was a refreshingly peaceful outing for Town's number one. Picked the ball out of his net once, well beaten by Andrade's crisp finish, but that was about the sum of his day's work... 6
Caught on his heels when the ball dropped to Andrade to blast in Lincoln's opener but stuck to his task and defended his penalty box well against the physical, direct approach of the home side... 7
Left it late to have his customary 40-yard effort, which this time cleared the stand. He's paid to defend though and he did that competently throughout, getting his head to plenty against Akinde and Angol... 7
Popped up with another important goal, his sixth of the season. His strong, potentially goal-saving challenge on Anderson was the highlight of another assertive defensive showing at the back... 8 CHRON STAR MAN
His focus was more on defence than attack in the wing-back role, positionally solid and didn't give much away. Thigh strain cut short his afternoon early in the second-half... 6
A lesser man might have gone off after Anderson's nasty challenge but he gamely battled on. Continued to compete well too despite walking the tightrope of an early booking... 7
