Michael Skubala lauded Lincoln City’s sustained unbeaten run in League One following their 2-1 victory over Leyton Orient, a result that extended their undefeated streak to 25 matches. The win, secured through a first-half goal by Jack Moylan and an own goal from Leyton Orient’s Will Forrester, reinforced Lincoln’s position near the top of the table before Dom Ballard’s late strike for the visitors.

Lincoln City officially confirmed their promotion on Monday, a milestone Skubala described as reflecting the team’s resilience and quality. “It’s an unbelievable record,” Skubala said, acknowledging the challenges faced during a demanding week. “We said this game would be tough because of the week we’ve had, but I thought we were electric. We made chances, looked really alive and powerful. This could have been the one where we could have taken our foot off the gas, but this is a special group.”

On the other side, Leyton Orient’s assistant manager Paul Terry criticized his team’s sluggish start, saying, “We didn’t give ourselves a chance with the way we started.” The Orient struggled to assert themselves in the opening stages, allowing Lincoln to gain and maintain control.

The result highlights Lincoln City’s remarkable consistency this season, underscored by their ability to secure crucial results even under pressure. Meanwhile, Leyton Orient will reflect on missed opportunities and look to regroup as the League One campaign continues.
