THE Oxford Mail player ratings after Oxford United rescued a late point in stoppage time in their 1-1 draw at home to West Bromwich Albion.
JAMIE CUMMING
Had a couple of comfortable stops to make, but ultimately he wasn’t tested that much by Albion – 7
PETER KIOSO
Tricky afternoon against a difficult opponent in Karlan Grant, who played particularly well for the visitors – 7
ELLIOTT MOORE
Returned to the side after knee injury and won the flick-on which led to the injury time leveller – 7.5
BEN NELSON
Cool and composed on the ball, while one excellent clipped pass forward created a chance for Mark Harris. BOOKED. MAN OF THE MATCH – 8
CIARON BROWN
Headed just over from a first half corner and kept Tom Fellows, with the most assists in the Championship, pretty quiet on the Baggies right – 7.5
RUBEN RODRIGUES
Couldn’t assert himself on the game and struggled to get involved in dangerous areas for United – 6.5
WILL VAULKS
Set pieces were much better than previously, and his long throw-in worked a treat in stoppage time – 7.5
IDRIS EL MIZOUNI
Like Rodrigues, he was on the periphery of the match for spells and didn’t influence the tempo as he would’ve liked – 6.5
TYLER GOODRHAM
Ended the game having played on both wings and in central midfield. Another who was nullified mainly though – 7
MARK HARRIS
Had an early chance when he beat the offside trap, but his touch took him a little wide to the left – 6.5
SIRIKI DEMBELE
The player who looked the most likely to carve something out from open play for United – 7
