LIVE: Oxford vs Posh
Key Events
- 3pm kick-off
85 mins 2-1 Posh
Posh dealing with a series of long throws into the box. They need to get the ball forward though now there’s two up top. Posh still can’t get out or get a hold of this game.
83 mins 2-1 Posh
Posh could have killed it there. JCH brushes off Moore on the left edge of the box, his cut back has too much on it for Marriott though. Burrows picks it up but tires to turn onto his weak foot, falls over and stops the ball getting away from him with his arm.
81 mins 2-1 Posh
Back three now, this game is something else. Oxford still look the better on the ball you’d have to say and if they get level, it wouldn’t be undeserved.
79 mins 2-1 Posh
Oxford swing in two more corners before Posh can relax as McGuane slashes a shot well wide.
75 mins 2-1 Posh WHAT A BLOCK
Unbelievable.
Butler is tentative to go out and pick up a ball on the left. Oxford win it and swing the ball in. Posh get it away but the ball falls to the edge of the box, Bergstrom is nowhere to be seen and Browne thinks he has a tap-in but there is the out-stretched leg of Edwards to deflect the ball over the top.
