OXFORD City made it three wins on the bounce after an impressive 5-1 victory over Concord Rangers last night.
The sparkling success sees Justin Merritt’s side return to the Vanarama National League South play-off places.
Jon Arzamendi put the hosts ahead when he fired home from a fifth-minute corner, before Reece Fleet (17) and Declan Benjamin (23) made it 3-0 before half-time.
Conor McDonagh hit No 4 16 minutes after the break, before Benjamin’s second of the game four minutes later put the result beyond doubt.
Benjamin spurned a chance to complete a hat-trick when he was fouled in the box, but then saw his penalty saved by Ben MacNamara.
Although Ben Greenhalgh pulled one back 13 minutes from time for Concord, City ran out emphatic winners.
Oxford City: Walker, Bevans, Stonehouse, Fleet, Arzamendi, King, Whichelow (Lafuente HT), Pond (Santiago 69), Benjamin, McDonagh, Isaac (Pifarre 85). Subs not used: Santiago, Lafuente, Pifarre, Lapoujade.
