Lincoln City beat Burnley 4-1 in the Championship, earning their first league win at home this season after Andréas Hountondji briefly put Burnley ahead. Ben House equalized just before halftime, and Lincoln added three second-half goals, including two from Mikkel Ladefoged. Burnley missed a late penalty through Marcus Edwards as Lincoln’s organized, high-energy performance exposed the visitors’ defensive and attacking struggles. The defeat deepened pressure on Burnley manager Nicky Hayen, whose dismissal was reported after the match, amid angry reactions from supporters and a poor start to the season.
