Constable goal earns Oxford draw against Leicester

James Constable
Constable originally joined Oxford on loan from Shrewsbury Town in 2008

Oxford United remain unbeaten in four pre-season games after holding Championship side Leicester City to a 1-1 draw at the Kassam Stadium.

DJ Campbell's free-kick gave the Foxes an early lead before James Constable levelled the score from close range for United midway through the second half.

U's manager Chris Wilder said: "The result wasn't important but we held our own in a competitive game.

"I thought we were much better in the second half and it was encouraging."

Oxford are next in action at the Kassam Stadium against a Manchester United XI on Tuesday, 27 July.

BBC Oxford has full match commentary in a sport special on 95.2FM in Oxfordshire and online from 1900 BST.
