-- Craig Alcock, Shane Kelly, Joe O'Sullivan and Constantino were all named to the League 2 team of the week this week.

-- The fourth round draw for the FA Cup is held... the winner of Woking/Bournemouth will get another home game, and boy it would be a special one. If we can somehow pull off a win at Bournemouth to advance, we'd host Arsenal in our little 6500 seat park.

Lincoln(9-10-6, 12th) @ Woking(17-5-3, 2nd)

We're second as league matches were played while we were playing our FA Cup match, so we're at one less game played now, and 1 point behind Stockport. Only 3 matches today, looks like this is the make up day. We're 4:5 favorites to win today, Lincoln is 3:1 to win. We're 1-0-2 lifetime against these guys, the one win a 3:2 victory on the road back in August.

GK: Lynch
D: Nikolaou/V Taylor/Smith/Alcock
MC: O'Sullivan/Middleton
AM: Colin/Ogogo
FC: Harsanyi/Constantino

Nikolaou back in at DL, O'Sullivan in for the injured Upson, Ogogo gets the start at AMR as N'Diaye could use a day off. We attack today. Lincoln run a 3-5-2, strikers Needham and Hutchinson are their leading scorers with 10 and 9 goals.

16': Nikolaou picks up a yellow for a tackle. This is ugly so far, both teams have a couple long off target shots, but mainly the highlights are showing tons and tons of poor passes and crosses.

29': We earn a corner, complete a cross successfully, Vince Taylor heads it over though.

32': Middleton with a run up the midfield, he threads a beautiful pass between 2 defenders to a streaking Ogogo, he comes in from the right side and blasts a shot past the keeper and in! 1-0

38': Lincoln try the same thing from the left side, a run up th emidfield, a nice pass to striker Needham, he fires a shot, but it is just inches wide.

41': Lincoln defender with a yellow for a foul.. i thought a penalty, but its literally on the 18 yard line. There's a 5 man wall but from this close Christian Smith is able to take perfect aim and he fires a hard shot on target, beating the diving keeper!! 2-0

44': Yellow for midfielder Lloyd for grabbing Harsanyi's jersey to keep him from running by.

45': Vince Taylor picks up a yellow, that's the second foul of his I've seen in highlights, lucky he didn't get a yellow already.

HALF: We manage 8 shots, but only put 2 on target, the two goals. 5 of our shots are from long range and 4 are blocked. Lincoln has 5 shots, just one on target, 4 of them from long range. Neither team is passing, crossing, or heading well, not a single number over 70% on either side. This is kinda sloppy but we've finished well when we did generate legit chances.

51': great long ball from O'Sullivan leading Ogogo into the penalty area, his first touch wasnt' quite perfect and it allowed a defender to come poke it away. Really really pretty pass though.

60': Tons of higlights with us on offense, possessions with 15+ passes to try to find an opening, we're up to a 62/38 possession edge but haven't found the shot we want yet.

64': Lincoln with a couple strong attacking possessions, but Vince Taylor is briliant in defense, making every key tackle and interception to keep them from being able to do anything at all.

68': There's a Lincoln foul against Harsanyi about 25 yards out, Christian Smith lines up another free kick and he just barely missed this one, inches over.

75': Aswad Thomas gives Nikolaou a rest.

82': Yellow for midfielder MacDonald as he gets completely owned by Middleton and has to foul him to keep him from blowing by and starting a run.

We put this one away.

Woking 2 : 0 Lincoln

We got a couple quick strikes for our goals but the defense was really solid from start to finish, I completely agree with the man of the match here:

Man of the Match: Vince Taylor (7.9) - 5 key headers and 8 inteceptions, won 22 of 23 headers he contested, made 5 tackles.
Goals: Smith (7.4), Ogogo (7.4)
Assists: Middleton (7.6), Constantino (6.9)
Notables: Alcock (7.1), Nikolaou (7.6), O'Sullivan (7.5)
