Image for Lincoln City 2-0 Sunderland: Our Man of The Match

The Vital Lincoln City members’ voted for whom they believe was The Imps Man of The Match in their 2-0 win at home against Sunderland in the 1st Leg of the League One Play-Off Semi-Final.

Views from Chesterimp: “Great team performance but Captain Fantastic Bridcutt’s takes the prize.

Bursik was calm and at times sensational, if Palmer is fit tomorrow he’ll be a one-match Imps legend.

The whole back 4 were superb, made their luck. TJ and then Montsma played well beyond their years.

Hopper proved again what a vital player he is for us.”

More views from the forum:

Cricklewoodimp: “Despite an excellent debut from Bursik and eye-catching performances from Poole, Eyoma, and Hopper, and a terrific all-action display from Scully, it has to be our very own Captain Fantastic, Liam Bridcutt.”

Rasenimp: “Bridcutt for me, points where the front 5 left him to sweep up as a one-man band in front of the defence.

The one time he flew forward and took a chance he created the opportunity for the goal just by will alone. Skipper’s performance.”

hulloutpost: “Bursik for the world-class save that stopped us going behind, amongst the other excellent stuff he did. Very likely we would not be going into the second leg with a lead had that one game-changing moment not occurred.

For that reason alone, he just pips commanding performances from TJ and Bridcutt.”
