Oxford United 2-3 Accrington Stanley

  • Published

Oxford are still looking for their first point of the new season after a Billy Kee double earned Accrington a 3-2 win at the Kassam Stadium.

Stanley twice fought back from going a goal behind before Kee fired home a late penalty.

Gavin Whyte put Oxford in front with a stunning strike after 27 minutes, hammering a right-footed drive high into the net from 18 yards.

Whyte then smashed a left-footed 20-yard drive against the post.

But Accrington levelled two minutes before half-time when Sean McConville's free-kick was turned into his own net by Cameron Norman.

Oxford regained the lead in the 57th minute with a superb solo goal from Marcus Browne, cutting in from the left to shoot home.

Kee levelled again five minutes later, lashing the ball home when John Mousinho missed a cross before completing Oxford's misery by rifling a spot-kick into the bottom right corner 11 minutes from time after Josh Ruffels tripped Jordan Clark.
