Another football game in Oxfordshire was abandoned at the weekend due to a confrontation between two rival players.

The match between Oxford's Headington Amateurs and Henley Town was brought to an end in the 85th minute because the referee feared for the safety of the players.

Chris Kidd, the 17-year-old referee, blew the whistle on the Oxfordshire Intermediate Cup match after someone ran onto the pitch to separate the two players at Barton Recreation Ground on Saturday.

Now the Oxfordshire Football Association will decide whether or not to replay the reserve team game, which finished 4-3 in favour of Headington Amateurs.

Brian King, who compiles the results for the Hellenic League, received a report that the match had been abandoned due to a "mass brawl" but both teams denied this was the case.

Football officials are still investigating complaints that a Childrey linesman was battered in a mass brawl last month as a youth league game was scrapped.

The linesman was reportedly left bruised and grazed after the clash in an Oxford Mail Boys League game between Childrey Challengers and Leys Unity at Horspath Road, Oxford. The incident began after an altercation between two players.
