Bolton Wanderers are now only five points from the League One play-off positions after the 3-1 victory over Lincoln City.
George Johnston put Wanderers ahead after the break after nodding home Aaron Morley's corner in the second half versus Micahel Appleton's side.
But the Imps equalised via Cohen Bramall when his shot appeared to take a deflection and get past James Trafford.
However, a pair of substitutes in the form of Kieran Sadlier and Amadou Bakayoko came off the bench to ensure Wanderers picked up another crucial three points to make it six wins in a row at the University of Bolton Stadium.
They now sit five points from the top six after results elsewhere on the night and the Wanderers dressing room took to Twitter to have their say on the victory
