Oxford Utd 1-0 Rushden

Darren Patterson's Oxford United battled their way to a narrow win against Rushden & Diamonds at Kassam Stadium on Tuesday evening.

The visitors ended up having the edge in terms of ball possession but it was Oxford who made their attacking pressure count with a late goal.

Yemi Odubade drilled a right-footed effort into the back of the net in the 85th minute to break the deadlock and Oxford held firm to collect all three points.

Rushden had a glorious opportunity to draw level late in injury time but Jon Challinor's header from six yards out went wide of the right-hand post.

Oxford bookings: Hand 72.

Rushden bookings: Corcoran 63, Woodhouse 90.

Ref: S Rushton.

Att: 4631.

Club Profile
Nene ParkArguably one of the best (if not the best) stadium in the league, Both in terms of facilities and sheer quality of the ground. Nene Park is totally enclosed, with all stands covered and roughly the same height. Three sides of the ground are all seated, with terracing behind one goal in the home end.
