Oxford United 2 - 2 Exeter City - Roberts rescues U's
Posted Sunday, January 25, 2015 by PA
Substitute James Roberts produced a superb finish from 20 yards two minutes into stoppage time to earn Oxford a 2-2 draw with Exeter at the Kassam Stadium.
The Grecians, behind early on, looked to be heading for victory when they went 2-1 up after 87 minutes with Alex Nichols looping a header in from close range.
But Roberts worked space for himself on the edge of the area and curled a left-foot shot in off the post.
Oxford had taken the lead in the 18th minute when leading scorer Danny Hylton volleyed home from 10 yards from Callum O'Dowda's driven left-wing cross for his 14th goal of the season.
But Exeter levelled in the 37th minute through Arron Davies, who took Graham Cummins' knock-down and volleyed past goalkeeper Ryan Clarke from 16 yards out.
