Oldham Athletic 1-1 Mansfield Town

  • Published

Mansfield put aside their poor league form to earn an FA Cup replay with League One Oldham.

Oldham took the lead when captain Korey Smith cut inside and bent a finish into the top corner.

Mansfield levelled the tie through top scorer Sam Clucas, who hit a superb free-kick from just outside the area.

The hosts tried to find a winner but Mike Petrasso and Jonson Clarke-Harris were both denied by keeper Alan Marriott.

Post-match: Oldham manager Johnson

"I don't think anybody didn't try, I just think that sometimes a break in the game and the decision making was poor today on our part."

"They're good players individually and I actually want the best for them. Sometimes I'm hard on them but really I love them all and I'm desperate for them to be the best they can be."

"When they fall short of those standards, I get upset."
