Hartlepool United climbed out of the League Two relegation zone after goals from Brad Walker and Scott Harrison sealed all three points against Cambridge United.

Tranmere Rovers's George Green scored a 94th-minute equaliser to cancel out Adebayo Akinfenwa's opener for AFC Wimbledon.

Alex Nicholls rescued a point for Exeter City at home to Morecambe, after the attacker equalised with 10 minutes of normal time left.

Northampton Town completed their comeback from being a goal down early on in the second half, beating Luton Town 2-1 thanks to James Gray's late winner.
