Oxford City sit top of Vanarama National League South after a 1-1 home draw with Chippenham Town.

Harvey Bradbury put the hosts ahead at the break, before Alene Santos equalized for the visitors.

Josh Ashby then saw a late penalty saved, denying City victory.

But Dartford’s 4-0 defeat at Maidstone United means David Oldfield’s side are top, thanks to their goal difference advantage of two.

The mid-table side from Wiltshire started the better, Harry Parsons testing Ben Dudzinski at his near post.

City gained momentum with Joe Iaciofano twice going close, before his low cross gave strike partner Bradbury a simple tap-in just before half-time.

City’s lead did not last long into the second period, as Chippenham levelled.

The first goal the hosts had conceded in more than 500 minutes was appropriately spectacular: Santos took a pot shot from at least 30 yards which flew into Dudzinski’s top left corner.

City had few chances to get back in front, but they were given what seemed a reprieve 15 minutes from time when Iaciofano was brought down in the visitors’ box.

Ashby stepped up, only to see his penalty beaten away by Will Henry to his right.

Jack Stevens scored twice as Banbury United beat Pitching In Southern League Premier Central leaders Coalville Town.

Ben Acquaye was also on target in the 3-1 win.

Banbury go second in Premier Central, one point behind Coalville with two games in hand.

In Division 1 Central, Connor Barrett scored twice, the first from halfway, as Didcot Town beat Hertford Town.

Goals from Lynton Goss and Dan West gave Thame United a 2-1 win at Kempston Rovers, while Roger James scored in North Leigh’s 4-1 home defeat to Bedford Town.

Shaquille Ishmael was on target in Wantage Town’s 2-1 home defeat to Welwyn Garden City, while Kidlington drew 0-0 at Waltham Abbey.
