Oakley Utd Res came back from a goal down to win 3-1 in a entertaining game at Oakley. It was the visitors that took the lead in the 2nd minute when Nick Talbot broke through and placed the ball calmly into the back of the net. Ben Gray equalised on 20 minutes finishing from 8 yards after good work from Adam Pike.
 
HT 1-1
 
The 2nd half got under way with both sides having chances to score, it was Oakley that took their chance as Ben Gray raced clear of the Mansfield Road defence to round the keeper and tap in to the empty net. There were more chances at both ends as both side searched for the next goal, it came on 80 minutes for Oakley as Ben Gray again finished coolly to wrap up the win for Oakley and secure his hatrick.
 
A good game of football to watch superbly refereed by John Hitchen, both sides scored him 10 out of 10.
