Ebbsfleet were denied victory in the last minute against Lincoln at Stonebridge Road on Saturday.

Fleet were heading toward their first win in six Blue Square Bet Premier outings after Tom Phipp, pictured, scored from long-range in the 36th minute.

The hosts should have added to that goal, with efforts from Lanre Azeez and Ashley Carew, but Lincoln keeper Paul Farman kept them out.

Lincoln had chances of their own, however, with Alan Power and Nicky Nicolau both hitting the woodwork.

And Fleet, who claimed a point with a last minute goal themselves in their last game against Dartford, were made to pay for not capitalising when Conner Robinson netted late on.

The draw leaves Fleet sitting third from bottom and a point above basement side Barrow.
