Cameron McGeehan scored the only goal of the game, popping up in the right place to bag his fourth of the season early in the second half. Here are our player ratings from Sixfields…

9. Mitch Pinnock
He's one of Brady's most trusted lieutenants and his disciplined, committed out-of-possession work showed why. Launched the long throw that led to McGeehan's goal and did a fine job at left-back in the closing stages... 7 Photo: Pete Norton

10. Sam Hoskins
As with Pinnock and Fox, he has the trust of his manager to carry out specific instructions when asked and that's what was needed here. Not really a game to flourish in an attacking sense - his best chance was blocked by a defender - but worked so hard all game... 7 Photo: Pete Norton

11. Tom Eaves
A handful throughout. Single-handedly carried Town's threat in the first half, only thwarted by Beckles' sliding block, and continued to cause Orient problems after the break. His strength sent McGeehan through and he kept running until the end despite obvious fatigue... 7.5 Photo: Pete Norton

12. Tyler Magloire
Tricky situation to come into, especially out of position, but he continued the good work of those before them and snuffed out Agyei's threat... 7 Photo: Pete Norton
