Macadam’s second goal settled the contest as Mark Hughes’ side moved level on points with leaders Rochdale after extending their unbeaten league run to eight games.

The 24-year-old had lashed the visitors in front in the 54th minute after the Boston defence failed to clear Regan Linney’s cross.

Lenell John-Lewis equalised two minutes later when he pounced after Carlisle goalkeeper Gabriel Breeze parried an initial effort from Frankie Maguire.
