City being without 15 players due to international duties. But they battled their way to a 1-1 draw, with Nmecha's 87th-minute shot spilled by the goalkeeper to allow Keyendrah Simmonds to poke home and give City the point they needed to qualify.

Lincoln won the subsequent penalty shoot-out to claim a bonus point in the group.Nmecha said the very young side had showed their spirit to grind out a result against much more experienced opposition.He said: "We could have taken our chances better but at the end, 1-0 down, everyone had tired legs.

We dug in and got to 1-1. It's just unfortunate to lose on penalties."We had a lot of young players in today so will have been tougher on the legs with the higher intensity.
