Bolton Wanderers and Lincoln City shared the points in a 1-1 draw in English Football League One on August 23rd. The result at the Toughsheet Community Stadium was a fair reflection of a closely contested match between two sides with promotion aspirations. Bolton opened the scoring with a header from a corner in the first half, but Lincoln City grew into the game and deservedly equalized in the second period through a neat finish inside the box. Both teams had chances to win it late on, with Bolton hitting the post and Lincoln forcing a smart save from the home goalkeeper in stoppage time. The point each does little to alter the upper mid-table positions for either team at this early stage of the season. The managers were likely content with a point but aware that their teams had the quality to have taken all three on another day.
