  • 0' The wait is over. Oxford United FC get us underway at Kassam Stadium.

  • 12' Dane Scarlett doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 17' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Jamie Cumming suffering a number of foals already.
