league two
League Two leaders Lincoln produced a scintillating display to win 6-2 at Port Vale. Lincoln led after three minutes via Harry Anderson’s driven shot, before Shay McCartan doubled the Imps’ tally after 38 minutes. Danny Cowley’s men were three up on the stroke of halftime after Leon Legge headed onto his own net. Almost immediately after the break, Michael Bostwick made it four, with Tom Conlon firing a fine free-kick into the top right corner for Vale. Scott Wharton and James Wilson both headed in, with Ben Whitfield netting a stoppagetime penalty for the hosts. Goals from Ajay Leitch-Smith and Vadaine Oliver handed Morecambe a 2-0 win at Carlisle. Nicky Maynard fired in a second-half equaliser against his former club to secure Bury a 1-1 draw at Crewe. Antoine Semenyo’s strike in the eighth minute of stoppage time snatched Newport County a 2-1 triumph over Stevenage. Matty Dolan got the hosts off to the perfect start with the opening goal inside the first minute, before Luther Wildin equalised just before half-time. Exeter City made it seven games unbeaten in the league with goals from Jonathan Forte and Jayden Stockley enough to see off Swindon at St James Park. Cambridge’s woeful home form continued as they lost 1-0 against MK Dons, with Chuks Aneke scoring the decisive goal. Andy Williams scored late on as Northampton ended Forest Green Rovers’ unbeaten start to the season with a 2-1 victory. Reuben Reid’s first-half goal had the visitors on course to extend their undefeated start, but Aaron Pierre levelled before Williams’ last-gasp winner.
