Lincoln make it five draws in six home matches with Portsmouth stalemate

Lincoln battled their way to a point in a goalless stalemate at home to Portsmouth.

The hosts stretched their unbeaten run in Sky Bet League One to six games, but it was a fifth draw in six home matches as frustration begins to grow in Lincolnshire.

For visitors Pompey, it was a welcome point on the road after back-to-back defeats.

The misfiring Imps wasted a host of first-half chances.

Jack Diamond squandered a great opportunity in the early exchanges as he poked wide from a brilliant long pass over the Portsmouth defence.

Colby Bishop missed two late chances to steal the spoils for Portsmouth – firstly firing straight at Carl Rushworth before smashing a one-on-one effort off target.
