Highlights of the Sky Bet League One match between Port Vale and Northampton Town.

League One round-up

Exeter claimed top spot in Sky Bet League One as Caleb Watts marked his debut with a second-half winner against struggling Cheltenham.

Watts settled a tight game at St James' Park with the only goal after 68 minutes, lifting the Grecians to the summit on goal difference from Port Vale as Stevenage were held 1-1 by Charlton. Cheltenham, meanwhile, are still awaiting their first victory of the campaign.

Port Vale moved into second as they earned a tight 1-0 win of their own against Northampton, courtesy of an 84th-minute strike from Ben Garrity.

Oxford are just a point behind in third after crushing bottom side Fleetwood 3-0 with goals from Stanley Mills, Billy Bodin and Kyle Edwards.

Stevenage, having looked set to end the day top, slipped to fourth after being pegged back by a late Charlton equaliser.

Jamie Reid had put them ahead after 34 minutes but an injury-time penalty from Corey Blackett-Taylor meant honours ended even.
