Fleetwood began the day at the top of the division and looking to record their fifth straight win in all competitions.

The Cod Army's afternoon started poorly as in-form striker David Ball limped off in the first half with a suspected dislocated shoulder after colliding with Mathias Kouo-Doumbe.

Both defences continued to impress after half time, as the game looked destined to end 0-0.

However, in the final minute of normal time Norris found the net with a powerful free kick to register his fifth goal in six games and Northampton's third league win of the season.
