Crawley town 4 - Oxford United 1
Just over 4,000 people turned up for this match including 1074 from Oxford. Good atmosphere all round
Great result as Crawley continued where they left off last week at Bury! The unchanged team completely outplayed Oxford.
Two goals from Tyrone Barnett in the first quarter of an hour saw The Reds in control. That was until the half-hour mark when a dreadful defensive mix-up, against the run of play, saw Shearer 'mugged' by their Constable for an easy tap in. That goal really was the most dangerous Oxford were in the whole match. Deep in injury time, Drury drove a low shot past their keeper to put us 3-1 at Half Time.
The second half was all Crawley and there could easily three or four more goals but only one of the chances was converted when 'Deano' struck a beautiful free kick - low and hard past their wall, leaving their keeper stranded. 4 -1 .
This win sees Crawley stay in second place in the table, two points behind Southend who just managed to take the points in the derby with Dagenham and Redbridge. D&R 2 - Southend 3. Below Crawley there is a four point gap with Cheltenham in third place.
Next up is away at Rotherham. We're both booked on the coach for this one and looking forward to the long day out and hopefully three points Next at Broadfield is on Saturday 3rd December in the FA Cup when we will play either Oxford City or Redbridge. We will know who after their replay this Tuesday.
COME ON YOU REDS!
