Patulea has scored four goals in seven games for Lincoln

Lincoln City striker Adrian Patulea says he will not be intimidated by aggressive challenges from opponents.

In the Imps' last two games the Romanian, 24, has had close attention from opposition defenders.

He had to have stitches in a cut nose after the 3-1 win over Chesterfield on Saturday, a game in which he scored.

Patulea told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: "It's their job, I want to score and they know that so they try to smash me about, but I can handle it."
