Daily Mail  

Alexander Isak looked to have equalised for visitors but was ruled out for offside ‘Do it for Locks’ has been the message after an emotional, traumatic and scary week for all connected with Luton. Andros Townsend paid tribute to Tom Lockyer after his goal that secured Luton's third win of the season Travelling fans unfurled a banner in support of Lockyer, who suffered a cardiac arrest last week Chants of the Wales international's name rang out throughout the ground during the game at Kenilworth Road The Hatters seized the initiative after a strong start and Townsend headed his side into the lead Your browser does not support iframes. Andros Townsend’s first-half goal was the winner, celebrated fittingly by the former Newcastle winger holding up a shirt bearing Lockyer’s name that was also hung in the home dugout. Luton wore T-shirts paying tribute the club captain Lockyer during their pre-match warm up The former Everton winger then raced to the home bench and celebrated with Lockyer's shirt Gabriel Osho, who came in for Lockyer, made a front foot start at the back for Luton, doing as much as anyone to limit Newcastle in the first 18 minutes to a Callum Wilson flick header that dribbled wide and couple of blocked efforts from Bruno Guimaraes. Ross Barkley came close to doubling the hosts' lead but his strike rebounded off the crossbar Newcastle looked to hit back after the interval and came close after a driven cross from Kieran Trippier A returning Alexander Isak looked to have equalised but his goal was ruled out for offside Dubravka also stuck out a leg to deny Adebayo.
