Freddie Wilson was pleased to get 90 minutes under his belt in the young Imps' comeback at Mansfield Town following his return from injury.
Wilson made his return from injury in City's last competitive fixture against Chesterfield and stepped up his recovery further on Saturday playing 90 minutes at RH Academy as the Imps battled back from 2-0 to draw 2-2.
The defender was highly influential as his side came back to rescue a draw late on and was very proud of their response.
He said: “I thought in the first half we were too sloppy, but we reset at half time and went into the second half with the right mentality which helped us grow into the game.
“The lads showed a lot of resilience and fought very hard. We created some very good chances, and we were probably unlucky to not come out with the win.”
Wilson had been out of the side for a few months through injury and is very glad to be back on the field and performing at his best again.
He added: "It feels brilliant to be back, when I was injured, I was just looking forward to getting back on the pitch so to get 90 minutes today for me is important and I’m glad I could top it off with that performance.”
City face Notts County next weekend and Wilson is hoping that this could be the perfect opportunity to build some strong form.
He said: “It’ll be good to build on today’s draw especially the second half performance. So hopefully if we play like that, we can get a win against Notts County."
