The Hatters led through Cohen Bramall’s wonderful free kick in the first half, before the Valiants levelled when Ben Waine headed in, then taking the lead after Devante Cole’s tapped home. Town did hit back to equalise thanks to Mads Andersen’s header, and to find out how the hosts rated, see below.
13. Jordan Clark (SUB): 5
His introduction lifted the crowd instantly, but unlike against Orient, he didn't quite have the same impact on the contest as Town struggled to ever really threaten a winner as they should have in the final half an hour. Instantly flew into a tackle which was late, as he was booked, which meant he had to be careful from then on, but although his short-range passing was accurate, his crosses into the box couldn't pick out a team-mate on this occasion.

14. Nahki Wells (SUB): 3
Came on as part of a double substitution with Clark for the final half an hour, but it didn’t make any difference to Luton's lack of threat upfront, as he was marked out of the game by an powerful Valiants defence, only managing to have a mere three touches during his time on the field.

15. Lamine Fanne (SUB): 6.5
Only on for the final 20 minutes as Luton had levelled and were looking the more likely of the two sides to press for a victory. Despite his short time on the field, displayed an eagerness to get on the ball that had been lacking from his team-mates, as he tried to make things happen, driving forward with a real purpose, which created space for the likes of Bramall to attack as well. Created the most chance for the hosts too with three, as it was ball to Nordas that saw the Norwegian's volley deflected away. Photo: David Horn
16. Lasse Nordas (SUB): 6
Had the final five minutes, plus stoppage time, but in that cameo, he looked more of a handful upfront than anything that had gone before him. One impressive turn saw Town almost get away, as he didn't waste a pass, setting himself an acrobatic volley that looked like it was going to fly in for the winner only to be blocked away. Must now be pushing for a start at Reading, to at least give the Hatters some kind of physical presence in the final third. Photo: David Horn
