McEvilly earns draw for Rochdale

Lee McEvilly's 84th-minute strike earned Rochdale a 2-2 draw at home to Lincoln. Rochdale took a one-goal advantage into the break when Adam Le Fondre pounced on a loose ball and fired it into the roof of the net. Lincoln were level in the 47th minute. A left-wing cross from Anthony Elding was aimed towards substitute Sam Mullarkey at the back post but Rochdale full-back Tom Kennedy intervened and sliced the ball into his own goal from three yards. The visitors were ahead in the 62nd minute, Danny N'Guessan collecting a wayward header from Rory McArdle and unleashing a fierce half-volley from the edge of the box past Frank Fielding. N'Guessan hit the foot of the post with another well-struck shot while Birch saved well from Ciaran Toner, Dagnall and Will Buckley before McEvilly's late leveller.
