Tariqe Fosu broke the deadlock on 33 minutes but Dale Taylor’s stoppage-time header meant the spoils were shared as Town finished 19th. Here are our player ratings from Sixfields... His goal came under very little pressure bar a brief spell midway through the second half and even then he didn't have a significant save to make before being taken off for Dadge with five of the 90 to play. That's his third season at Sixfields done and dusted and it's very likely he'll have a fourth...

Wigan Athletic manager Ryan Lowe was unhappy with his side’s ‘unacceptable’ first half performance and their ‘criminal’ defending that led to Tariqe Fosu’s opening goal during Saturday’s 1-1 draw at Sixfields. Cobblers were the better team in the first half and led at the break thanks to Fosu’s fine counter-attacking goal, which all came from a Wigan corner, but Dale Taylor rescued a point very late on before Will Aimson saw red with virtually the last act of the game.

Cobblers boss Kevin Nolan was frustrated not to finish the season with a win after his side conceded a 96th minute equaliser to Wigan Athletic on Saturday. Tariqe Fosu finished off a sweeping counter-attack to give Town the lead in a decent first half display, but they could not hold on for all three points as Dale Taylor struck at the death, which meant a 19th-placed finish for Nolan’s men. "It was much better than last week,” said Nolan.

Cobblers conceded a stoppage-time equaliser as they were pegged back to a 1-1 draw by Wigan Athletic on the final day of the 2024/25 League One season. Town survived a couple of scares in the second half and looked on course for a final day victory, one that would have seen them finish above Peterborough in the final standings, until Dale Taylor's 96th-minute equaliser.

Kevin Nolan hopes to finish the season with a flourish against Wigan Athletic on Saturday before sitting down and making some ‘tough decisions’ on his squad next week. Cobblers wrap up a challenging but ultimately successful season by hosting Wigan Athletic this weekend, and then all eyes will turn to the summer and who will stay and who will go, with 16 players out of contract. "There are decisions to make and they are tough decisions because these are people’s livelihoods,” said Nolan.
