Bayo scores in unofficial friendly

Adebayo Akinfenwa scores on his return to action as the Cobblers draw 2-2 with Q.P.R. in a behind closed doors friendly game.

Bayo, who has been struggling to be fit for the new season, played 45 minutes at Rangers' training ground this afternoon and got on the scoresheet in the process. Ian Henderson scored the other goal and Town boss Stuart Gray was happy with the workout.

He said, "Bayo looked strong and got a goal. He played 45 minutes, that was always the plan, and he came through without any problems. This was a big step forward for him."

"We also topped Chris Doig up with 75 minutes and he came through fine as well. In fact, everyone came through unscathed and it was a successful exercise for us."
