LOAN WATCH
George TaftTaft was named on the bench for Cambridge’s League 2 opener at home to Newport County.
Barry Corr's brace helped Cambridge United to an opening-day victory. The forward struck with a perfectly placed header from Harrison Dunk's delivery, before claiming his second when one-on-one with keeper Joe Day.
Newport were awarded a penalty when Dunk fouled Scott Boden, but Sam Beasant read Medy Elito's spot kick.
Robbie Simpson settled any Cambridge nerves 10 minutes from time, driving home from the edge of the area.

Marcus Harness
Harness was named in Ilkeston’s starting XI alongside former Brewer Joe Doyle.
Ilkeston faced Belper Town in their final pre-season fixture before they begin their league campaign.
The 19-year-old forward could have claimed an equalising goal as his cross was just touched home by a Belper Town defender to level the scores at 2-2.
