Football: Stockport County 3 - 2 Lincoln City

Image
Stockport County came from two goals down to secure a stirring 3-2 victory over Lincoln City. Substitute Isaac Olaofe struck a late winner as they remain in 3rd place, still needing a win to secure a home 2nd leg in the play-offs. Author - Jamie P With a play-off place already assured, County appeared destined for defeat after first-half goals from Ben House and Erik Ring put the visitors firmly in control. But a spirited second-half fightback, featuring goals from Jayden Fevrier and Will Collar, set the stage for Olaofe to complete the comeback in dramatic fashion. Lincoln took the lead in the 24th minute when House finished clinically from Tendayi Darikwa’s incisive pass. The Imps then doubled their advantage shortly before the interval, Ring rifling a shot beyond Corey Addai after finding space in the area.

Salford's promotion hopes were dented away at Wimbledon AFC Wimbledon climbed to second in League Two after a hard-fought victory over promotion rivals Salford, with Matty Stevens netting his 16th league goal of the season to settle the contest.
