Lincoln City 1-1 AFC Telford

AFC Telford almost registered their second away win of the season against Lincoln City on Saturday, but Chris Blackburn's own goal meant the game would end in a draw.

It's now been five games without a win for Lincoln, but the Imps will be grateful that the Bucks, who sit one place below them at 18th on the table, took it upon themselves to level the score.

It was former Imps player, Kyle Perry, who gave Telford the lead in the 26th minute, tapping in after a perfectly weighted cross from Ryan Valentine.

The home fans would have been relieved when Blackburn stuck the ball past his own goalkeeper eight minutes later, while trying to clear a dangerous cross from John Nutter.

In the second half, Lincoln had several good chances to win the game, but Peter Bore shot straight at Ryan Young when one on one with the keeper, and

Jefferson Louis hit the side netting, when scoring might have been easier.

Lincoln bookings: None.

AFC Telford bookings: None.
