Town were the better side in the first half but created little throughout the contest and tired late on. Here are our player ratings….
9. Mitch Pinnock
There were openings for Town, particularly in the first half, but it was one of those games where the final pass, cross or shot was missing. His set-pieces were well dealt with by Rovers... 6 Photo: Pete Norton
10. Sam Hoskins
Led some dangerous breakaways but had to wait until the very last minute for his big chance. If there was anyone that Cobblers wanted it to fall to, it was him. But he missed the target with virtually the last kick... 6.5 Photo: Pete Norton
11. Callum Morton
Such a livewire up top. He's lost none of his work ethic. His running, movement and pace caused constant problems and provided Cobblers with an outlet. Very unlucky when his block on Griffiths rebounded just wide and he had a couple of other nearly moments too... 7 Photo: Pete Norton
12. Tyler Magloire
First competitive action in 18 months and he looked fit and strong... 6 Photo: Pete Norton
