High-flying Lincoln ease past struggling Peterborough

High-flying Lincoln continued their fine start to the season with a comprehensive 3-0 League One victory at struggling Peterborough.

The impressive Imps have lost just once in the league so far this campaign and goals from Adam Reach, Tendayi Darikwa and Justin Obikwu condemned Posh to a seventh league defeat of 2025/26.

Reach opened the scoring – with his first goal since May 2022 – as he fired a fine free-kick into the top corner in the 16th minute.

Jimmy-Jay Morgan rattled the post with the hosts’ best chance of the first half, while Archie Collins saw his header bounce over the crossbar as Posh went into the break behind.

Captain Darikwa doubled Lincoln’s lead on the hour when he converted from Rob Street’s deep cross.

Morgan squandered a good chance to immediately pull one back when he diverted the ball wide at the back post.

Substitute Obikwu wrapped up the points with a header late on as the visitors remain third in the table and Posh second-bottom.
