City reached the 100 point landmark with a dramatic win over Wycombe Wanderers in front of another sold-out LNER Stadium.
With a match played in a celebratory atmosphere, Jack Moylan and Reeco Hackett gave the Imps a 2-0 lead at the break.
Hackett added a second early in the second period to make it 3-0. Wanderers showed great spirit and scored twice to threaten to ruin the party, but Tendayi Darikwa added a decisive fourth goal which rendered a third strike from the visitors as academic.
The Imps had the first shot of the game after four minutes. Moylan received the ball just outside the box and crossed paths with Ivan Varfolomeev, who then geared up to strike, but the attempt was just clear of the goal.
The Chairboys went close to scoring from a header in the goalmouth after 12 minutes, but the ball went over the goal.
City had a chance to score after 15 minutes when the ball was passed to Hackett while on the run. He shot at goal but it received a few deflections in the box and went out wide.
Moylan powered a corner across the box after 24 minutes but only an opposition player was able to make contact with it for it to go out for a corner. Varfolomeev took the corner which touched a few heads in the box before going out again.
Hackett had another good chance after 31 minutes. The ball landed at his feet in the goal area when he shot through the legs of a Wycombe defender, but the keeper Will Norris who was just behind was able to collect it in his hands.
Moylan scored to put the Imps in the lead after 33 minutes. He found his way past an opposition player halfway into their end and ran through an array of other players before powering it at the goal. The ball hit the bar and glided into the bottom right corner.
Bradley Fink attempted to equalise for the Chairboys after 36 minutes, but it was shot into the side netting.
City got a penalty after Luke Leahy handballed Hackett’s pull back. Hackett took the penalty and slotted it into the bottom right corner, while Norris dove to the other side of the goal after 38 minutes.
Varfolomeev sent another shot from the edge of the box in time added on. Hackett passed him the ball before he struck the ball to the top of the goal, but Norris was able to stop it.
Wycombe started the second half with a change where Niall Huggins was replaced by Junior Guitirna, while City remained unchanged.
Hackett scored again for the Imps after 53 minutes. He lunged for the ball as it was being passed between the Chairboys where he then rolled it into the bottom right corner of the goal.
Wycombe scored shortly after. George Wickens initially saved a shot from Josh Scowen, but the ball bounced into a position where Scowen was able to tap it into the back of the net after 57 minutes.
Rob Street tried to take another back, but he narrowly missed the goal as it bounced off the left post.
The visitors were able to get a shot on target after Junior Quitirna fired it toward Wickens but he was able to get a hand to it.
City made a triple change after 68 minutes where Moylan, Street and Conor McGrandles were replaced by Dom Jefferies, Ryan Oné and Tom Bayliss. Wycombe responded with a triple change also where Luke Harris, Fink and Leahy were replaced by James Mullins, Woodrow and Taylor Allen after 71 minutes.
The Chairboys made it 3-2 after 74 minutes following some messy play in the goal area. Skura was able to tap the ball past Wickens after he had previously made a save.
Darikwa made it four for the Imps after 83 minutes when he found himself one and one against Norris in the box. The keeper stayed on his line before the captain fired the ball into the bottom left corner of the net.
City made a substitution after 85 minutes where goalscorer Hackett was replaced with Alfie Lloyd. Wycombe decided to make a change at the same time, where their goalscorer, Skura, was also replaced by Ewan Henderson. The Imps made their final change after 88 minutes where House was replaced by Erik Ring.
The Chairboys scored a third after 94 minutes when Woodrow ran with the ball at his chest into the goal, with Wickens unable to do anything.
