Northampton Town continued their recent good record in the Capital One Cup when they eased past Blackpool in the first round on Tuesday night.

Chris Hackett put the Cobblers into a 21st minute lead before 18-year-old Dominic Calvert-Lewin added a second three minutes later on his Northampton debut.

Fellow Sixfields debutant Sam Hoskins then made it 3-0 with a third goal in nine minutes and that’s how it stayed until full-time despite further chances for the hosts.

The draw for the second round takes place live on Sky Sports 1 after the conclusion of Doncaster versus Leeds United this evening.
