  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Barnett ran riot in the wide areas with his exceptional crossing causing trouble for Northampton's defence. McClean's opener and Lee's third were assisted by Barnett while the full-back played key roles in the two other goals which led McClean to hail his performance as a "masterclass".

  After the victory, McClean took to Instagram and wrote: "3 points, 2 goals, assist, witnessed a @ryanbarnett38 masterclass, brilliant Sat at the Racecourse 🙌🏻🔴🐲".
