Reid then converted a 23rd-minute penalty after City right-back Tom Miller fouled Tope Obadeyi. Reid completed his hat-trick in the 35th minute when he latched on to Andres Gurrieri's through ball and again calmly sent a measured strike past the beleaguered Farman. Lewis Alessandra's 64th minute goal-bound effort ricocheted off Imps defender Andrew Boyce to make it 5-0. The visitors' best chance fell to Miller in the fifth minute when he forced a top-class save from Argyle keeper Jake Cole.
