Oxford United 2-2 Wycombe Wanderers

Cameron Brannagan's stoppage-time penalty salvaged a point for promotion-chasing Oxford against local rivals Wycombe at the Kassam Stadium.

In a dramatic match featuring three second-half penalties, substitute Brannagan put away the crucial final spot-kick in the sixth minute of time added on after Luke Leahy had tripped Mark Harris just inside the area.

Furious Oxford boss Liam Manning had earlier been shown a red card by referee Sebastian Stockbridge after Wanderers came from behind to lead thanks to two contested spot-kicks.

Ruben Rodrigues fired the U's in front in the 25th minute with a volleyed first-time finish from Marcus McGuane's cutback.

Wycombe levelled 11 minutes into the second half when Leahy planted his penalty into the bottom-right corner after McGuane had slipped inside the box and his hand knocked the ball.

Wanderers turned the game on its head when Brandon Hanlan drew a foul from keeper James Beadle on 81 minutes, and Leahy stepped up to convert his second penalty in almost the same place.

But Oxford were not to be denied as Brannagan made no mistake deep into stoppage time.
