Here is how we rated Rovers’ individual performances at Sincil Bank. Let us know what you think on Twitter @FreePressRovers.
1. Ellery Balcombe 9
The ultimate hero on the afternoon. Was strong, mainly in how he claimed crosses into the box and particularly low one towards his front post. He produced a brilliant save to keep out a McGrandles strike which took a deflection on its way through. But then there was his two penalty stops, especially after unnecessarily conceding one himself. Photo: Ed Sykes/AHPIX LTD
2. Joe Wright 8
Back in at right back to give more physical presence and defensive resolve, which he offered in spades against the lively Rogers. The timing of his challenges was spot on, and it needed to be. Photo: Bruce Rollinson
3. Tom Anderson 9
An absolute rock at the back for Rovers. He showed tremendous composure to head away plenty and produced a string of timely blocks to keep them ahead for so long. Photo: Howard Roe/AHPIX LTD
4. Andy Butler 9
Another rock, he was incredibly resolute and put in some tremendous blocks himself to keep Lincoln out. Photo: Andrew Roe/AHPIX LTD
