Lincoln City 1-2 Wigan Athletic

Play-off chasing Lincoln saw their 16-game unbeaten run ended by Charlie Hughes' last-gasp winner as Wigan claimed a 2-1 victory at the LNER Stadium.

The Imps looked well-placed to extend their impressive run even further having battled back from a goal behind.

Jonny Smith fired Latics into a welcome 20th-minute lead with his first goal since New Year's Day. The midfielder's sweet strike took a slight deflection as it flew into the bottom corner.

But Daniel Mandroiu levelled for the Imps five minutes before the break with a fine finish.

It was the Irish midfielder's first goal for nearly two months but it could not have come at a better time as the hosts found a way back into the contest.

Smith had an early effort saved, while at the other end Hughes rifled a right-foot shot just wide.

Thelo Aasgaard turned provider for Smith to open the scoring, before Mandroiu had a powerful shot saved.

Ben House went close before Mandroiu levelled and leading scorer Joe Taylor had a header saved on the stroke of half-time.

Jason Kerr headed wide for the Latics and Tom Pearce blasted over, but Hughes' stunning last-gasp volley saw the visitors take the points.
