Northampton secured a 2-1 victory over Lincoln in a League One match at Sincil Bank.
Jon Guthrie opened the scoring for Northampton after half an hour, heading into an empty net from a Marc Leonard cross.
Kieron Bowie doubled the visitors’ lead with a left-footed shot from the edge of the area in the 58th minute.
Lincoln responded quickly with Timothy Eyoma’s close-range header from an Ethan Hamilton corner, setting up a thrilling finish.
