COLCHESTER United goalkeeper Jake Turner's fine performance against Newport County has been rewarded after he was named in the Sky Bet League Two Team of the Week.
Turner was in excellent form for the U's in the 1-1 draw on Friday night, making a number of excellent saves.
The highlight of on-loan Newcastle United keeper's display against the Exiles was arguably his superb first-half double save to deny both Oli Cooper and Courtney Baker-Richardson from close range.
