LIVE: Posh vs Oxford

A great Posh performance

Mothersille for Jones

A Football League debut.

Great play from Kyprianou to win the ball on the left, clip it over to Ajiboye and he showed great feet to twist and turn and pick out De Havilland in the middle of the box.

He hits the ball into the turf and into the back of the net.

Posh keeping the ball upfield better now.

De Havilland denied by a good shooting chance from Ajiboye's cross by a good tackle

Bodin off, Smyth on

Randall off for De Havilland

Ajiboye for Poku

Katongo has done well since Murphy came on, the winger has drifted out of he was running out there.

Free-kick 3o yards out for Oxford.

Into the wall and then the follow up blocked, corner.

Into a great area, first header won by Oxford and it's a great block Kyprianou to get it away. O'Donkor smashes the rebound over.

Change up top

Mark Harris off, Gatlin O'Donkor on

Another good save Beadle, defence-splitting cross-field pass from Poku to EMC on the edge of the box, he controls it and drills it low, sharp reflexes.

Posh may have seen through the storm.
