Lincoln City have pulled off a massive upset in the opening game of the fifth round of the FA Cup.

The Imps, who play in the fifth tier of English football, beat the Premier League’s Burnley 1-nil at Turf Moor to become the first team through to the quarter finals.  Sean Raggett scored the winner in the 89th minute, after a corner to the back post was headed across the front of the goal.

Lincoln have already beaten Guiseley, Altrincham, Oldham, Ipswich Town and Brighton and Hove Albion in this season's competition. They have now defeated top flight opposition to become the first non-league club to reach the last eight of FA Cup since 1914.
