Kion Etete and Paul Lewis were the men on target as Town twice surrendered the lead to be pegged back by their League One visitors. Here are our player ratings from an entertaining cup tie at Sixfields...
9. Sam Hoskins
His long ball was perfectly weighted and timed for Etete to latch onto. Only last-ditch defending denied him the chance to turn in McWilliams' cross and stung the palms of Mitov. Fired Town's best opening of the second-half wide via a deflection... 7
10. Paul Lewis
Right place, right time again for another simple tap-in and his fourth goal in two games. Great movement to lose his marker. Dropped deeper in the latter stages... 7.5
11. Kion Etete
Absolutely unplayable in the first-half. Took his goal so well, leaving a defender on the floor before slipping underneath Mitov. So much power and strength to set up the second. Seems to be improving with every game... 9 CHRON STAR MAN
12. Danny Rose
Found himself in good positions as a second-half sub but was snuffed out by United's defence... 6
