WATCH the key moments from Oxford United's 2-1 home defeat to Accrington Stanley.
Paul Smyth opened the scoring for the visitors, seconds after referee Ollie Yates waved play on despite Dion Charles' close-range effort from a corner crossing the line.
Elliot Lee levelled midway through the first half, but Michael Nottingham sealed victory for Accrington with 20 minutes left.
The result leaves United 12th in Sky Bet League One, with the gap to the play-offs now six points.
