    MK Dons 2-2 Chesterfield

    Former MK Dons striker Will Grigg rescues a point for Chesterfield in the final minute to deny MK Dons a spot in the top three.

    Debutant Sam Curtis pulled one back for the visitors with a header in the 67th minute but it's Grigg's nod that will capture the headlines as he headed in the equaliser in the final action of the game.

    It means the Spireites move into the top six but also coming out winners are Walsall, who narrowly avoid being chucked out the top three.

    Lincoln 5-2 Peterborough

    Jimmy Walker
    Former Lincoln City goalkeeping coach on BBC Radio Lincolnshire

    Sensational from Darikwa, he's been captain fantastic today, some unbelievable moments in this game, he's deserved it, he's been outstanding.

    It's been tough at times for Darikwa and Reach defensively this afternoon, but what they've given us going forward is outstanding.

    The former Dons man comes back to haunt his old team.

    With time dwindling, Chesterfield substitute Will Grigg nestles a header into the net to equalise at the death.

    Wow.

    GOAL: Lincoln 5-2 Peterboroughpublished at 13:58 GMT 4 January

    Tendayi Darikwa (90+1 min)

    It's five again for Lincoln at home to Peterborough...

    Tendayi Darikwa has his second and has been in a league of his own this afternoon.

    It all comes from a Posh corner as the Imps break at pace and the full-back produces a lung-busting run from his own box and applies a wonderful lofted finish to beat Alex Bass and put the gloss on another big win over their rivals, who lost 5-1 here last season.

  5. INJURY TIMEpublished at 13:58 GMT 4 January

    Lincoln 4-2 Peterborough

    Into FOUR added minutes at the LNER.

    Feels like the drama is behind us, but in this league, and with these teams, you just never know...

  6. FULL-TIMEpublished at 13:56 GMT 4 January

    Cheltenham 3-0 Crawley

    Second-half goals from Hakeeb Adelakun, Jordan Thomas and Robbie Cundy ensure Cheltenham see off League Two strugglers Crawley to avoid a third successive defeat and record their biggest league win of the season.

    Steve Cotterill's side remain 18th but go 13 points clear of the drop zone to give them breathing space as they set their sights on pushing towards mid-table.

    No league wins in 10 now for Crawley, who will see this as a big opportunity missed to put a bit of daylight between them and the other sides around them who were not in action today. The Red Devils who have now lost three on the bounce, stay in 21st and two points from safety.

  7. Postpublished at 13:56 GMT 4 January

    MK Dons 2-1 Chesterfield

    There's four more minutes to play in this.

    Four more for MK Dons to hold onto their place in the automatic promotion spots.

  8. GREAT SAVE!published at 13:54 GMT 4 January

    Lincoln 4-2 Peterborough

    Great save from Alex Bass with his legs as Lincoln seek to hit a fifth in this fixture for the second season in a row.

    Another poor clearance from Posh is almost punished as Justin Obikwu but Bass is to the rescue to keep the deficit to two.

    Bolton 0-0 Northampton

    Try as they might, neither side could find a breakthrough and it's a point apiece.

    Terry Taylor skimmed the bar for the visitors in the early stages but despite 25 attempts in the game, 17 of them for the hosts, ZERO were on target.

    Bolton climb into the top four but only just and could be out of the play-off places altogether by tea-time depending how other results go.

    One win in five for Steven Schumacher's side now, while it's back-to-back stalemates for Kevin Nolan's gritty Cobblers, who are up a place to 18th but remain bang in trouble just two points above the relegation zone.

  10. YELLOW CARDpublished at 13:51 GMT 4 January

    Lincoln 4-2 Peterborough

    Harry Leonard, who opened the scoring in this game what seems a year ago, has gone into the book for a late challenge on Ryley Towler.

    Adam Reach has been withdrawn by Lincoln, with Erik Ring coming on for the closing stages.

  11. INJURY TIMEpublished at 13:51 GMT 4 January

    Cheltenham 3-0 Crawley

    We have six minutes of added time as Cheltenham are on their way to three points.

  12. INJURY TIMEpublished at 13:50 GMT 4 January

    Bolton 0-0 Northampton

    Into FIVE added minutes at the Toughsheet, where it has been a tough watch for long spells if we're honest.

  13. YELLOW CARDpublished at 13:46 GMT 4 January

    MK Dons 2-1 Chesterfield

    Plenty of boos echoing around Stadium MK as Liam Kelly is cautioned for a foul on Chesterfield's Sammy Braybrooke.

    The home support might be starting to get nervous. There's not much time left on the clock but that win doesn't seem a given and they want to get comfy in that third-place spot they are currently occupying.

  14. CLOSE!published at 13:45 GMT 4 January

    Bolton 0-0 Northampton

    It's Tom Eaves again.

    This time the Northampton forward turns brilliantly and lashes in a volley which flashes past the Bolton post.

    Straight down the other end go the Trotters, however, and Kyle Dempsey plays a neat one-two with Sam Dalby before firing a rising strike over Ross Fitzsimons' crossbar.

  15. Postpublished at 13:44 GMT 4 January

    Bolton 0-0 Northampton

    Thierry Gale is off the bench for the hosts but despite doing well on the left and working space for a cross, his ball in deflects off the defender and loops into the arms of keeper Ross Fitzsimons.

  16. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 13:43 GMT 4 January

    Lincoln 4-2 Peterborough

    Double change for Posh as Brandon Khela and Matt Garbett head off with Donay O'Brien-Brady and Cian Hayes coming off the bench.

    Bolton 0-0 Northampton

    Northampton's subs have given them hope in this game and Kyle Edwards shows some twinkle toes before getting a shot away, though it cannons off a defender and rolls through to the grateful Tyler Miller.

  19. YELLOW CARDpublished at 13:40 GMT 4 January

    Lincoln 4-2 Peterborough

    Ryley Towler becomes the first Imps man into the book for a cynical tug-back in midfield.

    Posh fail to make the most of the free-kick, however, and Lincoln break before Reeco Hackett loops an acrobatic effort narrowly over the bar.

  20. 'Bolton have struggled'published at 13:40 GMT 4 January

    Bolton 0-0 Northampton

    Jack Dearden
    BBC Radio Manchester commentator

    Bolton have struggled today, the passing has been poor all afternoon.

    We've got seven minutes left for Bolton to produce what would presumably be a late winner.
