Ghanaian forward Kwame Poku scores to salvage point for Peterborough United at Lincoln City

Ghanaian winger Kwame Poku’s impressive second-half strike earned Peterborough a draw against in-form Lincoln.

Ben House gave Lincoln a 33rd-minute lead with his third goal of the campaign as the Imps went in search of their fourth win in five, but Poku’s 65th-minute strike gave Peterborough a point.

The hosts looked the more dangerous in the early stages, with Poku and Hector Kyprianou both having goal-bound efforts blocked.

But a well-worked move from the visitors saw them take the lead 12 minutes before the break as House guided Dom Jefferies’ square ball into the bottom corner.

After Jed Steer made a crucial save to deny House his second on the hour mark, Poku seized his chance by cutting in from the right wing before sending an unstoppable left-footed strike past George Wickens.

Peterborough had the best chance to clinch victory just a few minutes later, but this time Wickens was equal to substitute Bradley Ihionvien’s effort.

Poku has scored three goals in five appearances for Peterborough United in the ongoing English League One season so far.
