Despair for the Cobblers as Colchester notch another.
Helpless spectator as shots regularly flew past him, although was down well to keep out Pell's late spot-kick and also spared Facey's blushes when rushing off his line to clear the wing-back's weak back pass... 6
The deadline day signing started brightly on debut and made two exceptional blocks, but like his fellow defenders he became ragged and overwhelmed by the slick movement of Colchester's attacking quartet. Looks a decent passer... 5
Tested the reflexes of Gilmartin with a stinging volley in a solid enough first-half, but became swamped by United's fleet-footed forward line in the second, given the runaround by Szmodics in particular... 5
Unusual to see the captain as flustered as he was in the second-half on Saturday, with Szmodics again the man causing problems, although having to cover two positions at once didn't help matters... 5
Difficult day for the wing-back who never looked comfortable. Provided little threat in attack and struggled positionally at the back as Colchester found too much space. Lucky to get away with an underhit back pass... 4
