Weymouth 0-1 Oxford Utd

Oxford United eventually did enough to collect all three points in a tightly contested affair at Wessex Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Goalkeeper Billy Turley was immense between the sticks and thwarted a number of Weymouth attacks throughout the encounter.

The U's finally got the breakthrough they were looking for after 75 minutes when Phil Trainer headed in at left-hand side of the penalty area.

Darren Patterson's side almost doubled their advantage in injury time but they were held at bay by Weymouth shot-stopper Stephen Henderson.

Jamie Hand hit the crossbar with a powerful long-range effort and Trainer pounced on the rebound with a left-footed shot from 18 yards out.

However, Henderson tipped Trainer's effort around the post to hold his opponents to just one goal.

Weymouth bookings: None.

Oxford bookings: Odubade 80, Quinn 86.
