Oxford Utd 1-0 York

Yemi Odubade's late penalty earned Oxford a narrow win over York to pull themselves away from the drop zone and make it five home wins in a row.

Sam Deering and Jamie Guy went close for Oxford early on as York failed to show much going forward.

The match looked set to end in a draw, when Daniel Parslow fouled Odubade in the area three minutes from time.

The substitute picked himself up and stepped up to fire a clinical spot-kick into the bottom left corner.
