Northampton and Peterborough played out a hard-fought 1-1 draw in the Nene derby.

Tom Eaves headed the home side in front at Sixfields but Jimmy-Jay Morgan levelled early in the second half and that was how it stayed.

Northampton dominated the early exchanges and Jake Evans was twice denied by Posh goalkeeper Alex Bass, while Lee Burge was alert to keep out James Dornelly at the other end.

Burge also produced a sharp stop from Kyrell Lisbie, but Northampton were the better team in the first half and a towering Eaves header from Tyrese Fornah's cross on the stroke of half-time gave them a deserved lead at the break.

Peterborough were back on level terms within seven minutes of the restart when Lisbie tore away down the left and squared for Morgan to finish in the middle.

Michael Forbes missed a good chance to restore Northampton's lead before Bass blocked from Evans and the Posh keeper was also quick off his line to smother the ball at Terry Taylor's feet.

Despite pushing, Northampton could not find a winner and remain in the relegation zone.
