Just before half time Jake Lockart came on for the injured Connor Gates and with his first touch scored!! This put Thrapston 3 – 1 up at half time.
Second half saw Thrapston dominate although they lacked the clinical finish on many occasions and the Earls Barton keeper was also on top form and made a number of excellent saves.
