Match Thread: Lincoln City v Oxford United

An excellent opening game. Considering Oxford were the best team in the division not to go up last year, that was a terrific result and performance. I think we have a few players that look a tad green at the moment, but they will polish up with more game time. We looked like we had that extra gear compared to Oxford. When we went for it, we opened them up. Good first week all round for the Imps.
 
Well - how good was that. Oxford had so much possession, but apart from two or three saves from Palmer, they really didn’t threaten. We looked dangerous so many times, and had some lovely passages of play. A lovely surprise when you think we weren’t sure if we had a clinical finishing ability and our midfield were perhaps not the strongest and our defence might have been inexperienced and given unnecessary goals away. An all round solid performance with an edge of entertaining skilful football. 👏👏 if this is the beginning, the journey promises to be enjoyable.
