Lincoln extend League Two lead with victory at Yeovil
Posted Wednesday, January 23, 2019 by PA
Lincoln extended their lead at the top of Sky Bet League Two to six points with a 2-0 win at Yeovil as Danny Rowe netted both goals.
Rowe was one of two changes made by Danny Cowley and the attacking midfielder repaid his manager’s faith with a brace at Huish Park.
The first came when Rowe was quickest to a Neal Eardley cross to the near post, getting in front of his marker and flicking the ball in after 27 minutes.
In the first minute of first-half stoppage time, the 26-year-old had his second when Michael O’Connor picked him out in the box with a superb defence-splitting pass and he turned and steered the ball into the net.
Yeovil goalkeeper Nathan Baxter had to make a sharp reaction save to prevent Lincoln going 3-0 ahead, tipping a Harry Anderson header from inside the six-yard box over the bar.
Jake Gray also cleared a Shay McCartan shot off the line as the Imps dominated the second half and secured a relatively comfortable victory.
