Chester 1-3 Oxford

Chester were left stunned as Oxford pulled off a win in a hotly-contested game that saw 11 yellow cards.

The visitors took the lead when a cross by Lee Bradbury took a deflection and fell kindly to Mark E'Beyer, who hooked the ball in for his first goal.

Chester levelled when Kevin Ellison side-footed home.

Matt Robinson gave Oxford the lead after his shot took a deflection before Steve Basham fired home after good work by substitute Craig Davies.
