A big win for Lincoln City thanks to Tendayi Darikwa's first half strike.

Before today the Imps were without a win or a goal in their previous four games.

Defeat means Kevin Nolan's Northampton are unable to make it back-to-back league wins as they suffer their first loss in three games.

Half-time in our other fixtures, and it's an exciting tie between Bolton and Cambridge. Wanderers went behind 2-1 just minutes after levelling.

Bottom of the league Burton are still holding their 1-0 lead against relegation rivals Crawley.

Stockport are leading Reading by 2-0 after goals from Macauley Southam-Hales and Callum Connolly.

Rotherham are now 3-1 up against Charlton. Zak Jules put the Millers ahead just as Charlton made it 2-1.

Forward Gatlin O’Donker has given Bristol Rovers a 1-0 against Barnsley.

Elsewhere, it’s still goalless between Stevenage and Wigan.

That's not 45 minutes that will live long in the memory but Birmingham have the lead.

Ethan Laird found a bit of room in the box from Alfie May's cross to hook past Joe Whitworth right on the stroke of half time.

Marc Leonard has been cautioned for Birmingham while Exeter's Jack McMillan and Ryan Woods have also received yellow cards.

Alfie May had a late effort blocked and (checks notes) yep, that's it.

We're into four minutes of stoppage time at Sixfields.

Will we have late drama?

That's a real sucker-blow for Exeter City, who have been very disciplined.

It's Birmingham's first real chance of the game.

Nothing between these two sides after 45 minutes.

A big second half coming up!

Enough in this to keep us interested.

The closest we've come to a goal is a glancing header from Mansfield's George Maris which hit the bar while Lee Gregory had an effort blocked.

At the other end Scott Flinders has denied Beryly Lubala who has also fired another effort wide.

Decent enough but no goals.

There is the half-time whistle.

The game remains in the balance as he head into the break.

Sonny Bradley scored his first Wycombe goal in their FA Cup win over Portsmouth and he gets on the end of a Luke Leahy cross but his header is blocked.

The ball breaks for MK's Liam Kelly who drives forward before firing a shot but his effort flies high over the crossbar.

Some fully committed defending from Wycombe sees them block efforts from Will Evans and Hiram Boateng - both sides have had sights of goal but can't break the deadlock.

These chances just aren't dropping for Stags players.

But, Mansfield are playing well at the moment.

Lincoln keeper Zach Jeacock is called into action as he denies Tom Eaves again saving his headed effort.

Morecambe's Yann Songo'o plays a pass through to Callum Jones and he fires a shot just inches wide of the right post.

A more than decent chance and not far away at all!

It's scrappy and Birmingham's Marc Leonard is cautioned by referee Elliot Bell for a late one on Vincent Harper.

Chances are beginning to come in this game now.

Richard Kone finds Beryly Lubala in the Mansfield box but he can't hit the target with his shot.

A second Exeter is man is in the book.

Jack McMillan is cautioned to join Ryan Woods on the naughty step.

Northampton striker Tom Eaves tries a dipped effort but Lincoln keeper Zach Jeacock is equal to it and does well to tip it over the bar.

Wycombe are almost the architects of their own downfall as Cameron Humphreys is dispossessed by Hiram Boateng and when the ball arrives at the feet of Lee Gregory his shot is blocked.
