Luton Town ran out easy 6-0 winners over Ipswich Town U21s in their Jersey Mike’s Trophy group stage clash at Kenilworth Road on Tuesday night.
Jordan Clark netted a birthday hat-trick, as Devante Cole, Joe Johnston and Dawid Gawel all scored their first goals for the club and to find out how the Hatters players rated, see below.

Came on for hat-trick hero Clark with 67 minutes on the clock as he moved into the midfield role he is more comfortable in, instantly looking to be positive and get the ball moving forward.

14. Harrison Ashby (SUB): 7
Despite being sent off at the weekend, with it not being a league game, he was allowed to play, part of a double change with Fox that saw Ioannides get a rest for the final part of the contest. Took over in the right back berth and was eager to get involved in proceedings, helping to nullify any kind of threat that Ipswich tried to muster out wide. Photo: Hasnain Ali photography
15. Jack Lorentzen-Jones (SUB): 7
As he always does during his brief first team run-outs, attempts to bring the kind of all-action displays that those seeing in the U21s will have witnessed, and this was no different. Drove forward positively to send one shot that didn't overly extend Noonan, while he almost found the net late on, only to see a defender just get there first to clear away.

16. Dawid Gawel (SUB): 7.5
Only had the final 10 minutes, but that was all the talented teenager needed to show just why he is so highly rated by those at Kenilworth Road and did as well as he did last season for the academy. Slipped in by Johnson, he needed one touch to set himself, with his next finding the bottom corner thanks to a clinical effort on his left foot, as the teenager was one of three to notch their first goal for the club on the night. Almost in again later but for a fine defensive challenge, as cameos like this will only lead to supporters calling for him to be included in the League One squad. Photo: Hasnain Ali photography
