RICHARD Wojciak bagged a brace as Oxford City Stars beat Cardiff ENL Devils 7-4 in English National League Division 1 South.
Cardiff went in front when Ricky Deacon slotted past Oxford netminder James Scaife, but Mark Krater hit back moments later, his shot taking a big deflection off a Cardiff defender.
Cardiff took a two-goal lead during a powerplay, before the first of two excellent Wojciak goals reduced the arrears.
In the second period, Wojciak netted his second to level the scores, before further goals from Darren Elliott and Ken Forshee gave Stars a 5-3 lead.
In the final period, Dean Francis extended the lead with ten minutes remaining.
The visitors netted a further goal, before Grant Bailey fired the puck into an empty net from long range after Cardiff withdrew their netminder in favour of an extra attacker.
