EFL Trophy Pizza Cup Semi-final Oxford v Rovers

[bring back the cowshed!]

Stupid, needless penalty. Terrible kick! Lucky Rovers.

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Vaughany coming on.

 

[Sparky]

Vaughan on for Kirby. Assume Lewis will drop a bit deeper and hopefully Vaughan can hold the ball up. Nya was doing ok to be fair

 

[bring back the cowshed!]

Am I the only one who finds the taped crowd noise annoying? It bears no resemblance to what’s going on on the pitch.

 

[bring back the cowshed!]

We are losing our composure a bit now. Oxford are pressing us constantly.

 

[Sparky]

Another let off after a mistake from manny sees Taylor hit the post

 

[Ian]

Hmm, long half this one..

 

[Sparky]

GOAL!! Morris fires in !

 

[Ian]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! against the run of play, Rovers strike again. Another lovely strike from Morris.

 

[bring back the cowshed!]

Wow!!

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

An absolute corker from Morris with his weaker foot !!!! Pleased for him as he has played well tonight.

 

[Sparky]

Still a long way to go. Oxford use their last throw of the dice with 2 more subs. Spearing and Feeney coming on

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Kahn off injured, hopefully not serious. All the big guns on for both sides now.

 

[bring back the cowshed!]

How did Taylor miss that header?

 

[Sparky]

Well I hold my hand up as I never expected that against such an inform Oxford side. Brilliant effort from the team and management.

We rode our luck a bit with the penalty and them hitting the post but deserved it overall and I thought our name might be on the cup when they missed the penalty. Good subs from Keith too at the right time when we needed them. Lots of MOM choices from Woolery, Morris and Ray but OConnor for me edged it playing well in midfield first half and RB later in the game.

Just a shame we won’t be at Wembley but an amazing achievement. Need to take it on to Saturday now but it does give Keith a real headache as the recent squad players really impressed tonight.

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Wemberleee, Wemberleee. Not long now.

 

[bring back the cowshed!]

We have played three League One sides in cups this season and have beaten them all. We should still be up there but hopefully we’ll be there next season.

oh wow what a superb team performance, easy as you like and we don,t do easy, fair play to Kieth Hill, or is it (curle) as said on talk sport, brilliant brilliant brilliant, hoe did we lose to Stevenage,that's why we love this game

 

[bigmart]

2 cracking finishes, thankfully Taylor had an off night in front of goal but a fantastic result. Hopefully the injuries are not too bad but we now need to kick on in the league as well.

 

[aldoes mustache]

I will say one thing fair play to the brilliant management of Mr. Hill and his staff brilliant
