Here are our ratings from Sixfields...

9. Michael Jacobs
There were flashes of quality but that's all they were. Very rarely did Cobblers sustain pressure. The ball just got away from him when a decent chance came his way shortly before Wigan's second goal... 5 Photo: Pete Norton

10. Jake Evans
His first ever senior goal brought much-needed smiles to claret faces, at least for a glorious few minutes, and he deserved it for just trying to make something happen. Became increasingly involved after a quiet first half and the way he bulldozed his way into the box and beat Tickle was excellent... 6.5 Photo: Pete Norton

11. Sam Hoskins
Started in a sort of false nine role but whatever the thought process and whatever the tactical plan it didn't work and he made way at the break after a fairly anonymous first half, not for the want of trying... 5 Photo: Pete Norton

12. Tom Eaves
His presence meant Cobblers had a bit more about them in the second half but nowhere near enough to sustain a consistent threat... 5 Photo: Pete Norton
