Football League Youth Alliance action
Northampton Town's under 18s began the new season with a 3-1 victory over AFC Wimbledon in the Football League Youth Alliance at Moulton College on Saturday.
Danny Clifton scored the first, with the other goals coming from Dodzi Agbenu and Shaun McWilliams.
However, the game was ended 5 minutes early after an AFC Wimbledon player suffered a back injury and an ambulance came on to the pitch.
"I was pleased with the performance of the boys," said coach Craig Hinton.
"We are just sorry the way the game ended and we send our thoughts and best wishes to the player concerned for a full and speedy recovery."
