Lincoln has secured the Sky Bet League One championship title following a 2-0 victory over Doncaster. Having already guaranteed promotion to the Championship on April 6 with a 2-1 win against Reading, the Imps needed only to avoid defeat at the Eco-Power Stadium to claim the league title, which they achieved with a convincing win. This triumph marks Lincoln's first season in the second tier of English football in 65 years, starting from the 2026/27 season. The team's remarkable season was capped off with goals from Ben House on either side of the break, extending their unbeaten streak to 27 games.
Despite a strong start and a penalty save by Thimothee Lo-Tutala, Lincoln took the lead in the 43rd minute when House scored. The Imps continued their dominance in the second half, with House scoring again in the 72nd minute to seal the win.
Lincoln manager Michael Skubala praised his team's achievement, noting that their performance exceeded expectations and was a testament to their hard work and resilience. The team's victory has sparked celebrations, and they look forward to their next match against Wycombe at home.
