Anssi Jaakkola - 6
Was beaten at a narrow angle for Anthony Scully's goal, but it was a pinpoint finish from the winger. Made good saves from Brennan Johnson and Callum Morton.
George Williams - 5
Got stuck in against a very lively Lincoln attack.
Alfie Kilgour - 6
Unlucky not to open the scoring inside a minute, with his looping header striking the crossbar. Made a vital intervention when Callum Morton was poised to shoot. Decent game
Cian Harries - 4
His blocked clearance led to Scully's opener after being played into trouble by McCormick. Could have made better of a headed chance in the second half.
Josh Hare - 5
Sacrificed at half time as Joey Barton reshuffled after the red card. Linked well with Westbrooke on occasion, but could have made better use of some crosses in his direction at the back post.
Luke Leahy (c) - 5
Looked an attacking threat when it was 11 versus 11, but he should have crossed for Jonah Ayunga when played in behind. Never stopped trying.
Ed Upson - 3
May have been harshly punished, with further review of the incident needed, but he is far too experienced to be getting tangled up in melees in such a vital game. Left his side a man down in those circumstances. Should have got up and walked away.
Pablo Martinez - 5
Could have been more composed in possession, but he did his defensive duties well.
Luke McCormick - 5
Committed as ever, but his play on the ball was erratic.
Zain Westbrooke - 4
Delivery was far too floaty and just not good enough again. Didn't stop running, but this game passed him by.
Jonah Ayunga - 4
A typical Ayunga performance. Posed plenty of concerns for the Lincoln defence, but he was lacking a ruthless streak in dangerous areas.
Subs
Brandon Hanlan (for Hare on 46') - 5
Gave it his all but couldn't change the game.
Erhun Oztumer (for Westbrooke 76') - 4
Few touches of note and almost gave away a second goal with a botched clearance.
Jack Baldwin (for Martinez on 85') - N/A
Not used: Joe Day, Cameron Hargreaves, David Tutonda, Zain Walker.
