Reggie Lambe and Cambridge United’s Checkatrade Trophy campaign came to an end at the hands of Northampton Town via a penalty-shoot out, following a 1-1 draw in regular time at the Abbey.
United produced an encouraging display and looked to have booked their place in Round Three through a fine first half goal by George Maris following excellent build up play between Jabo Ibehre and Lambe, before substitute Kevin Van Veen levelled late and the visitors triumphed 2-4 from the spot.
