James Constable's double inspired Oxford United's hammering of Eastbourne Borough at the Kassam Stadium.

Constable converted Matt Day's corner and then crossed for Levi Reid to double a lead which Borough's Patrick Harding and then Allan Tait wiped out.

Marc Pullen's own goal gifted Oxford the lead, only for Paul Armstrong to draw level Eastbourne level again.

But Eddie Hutchinson headed Oxford back in front, Constable added his second and Barry Quinn headed United's sixth.
