It\u2019s a 12-week injury and he\u2019s four weeks into that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another one of Oxford&#8217;s injured players is Billy Bodin after he was forced off in their last match &#8211; a 1-1 draw against Forest Green Rovers. However, Robinson has revealed that is less serious.<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cHe\u2019s fine, the scan came back okay.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s trained this morning (Thursday), but there\u2019s still a level of fatigue in there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe pitch on Wednesday (at Woking) certainly had an impact on him but he scored the goal, so you\u2019ve got to weigh that up as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Young U&#8217;s Through In FA Youth Cup<\/h3>\n<p>Oxford&#8217;s U18s made it through to the third round of the FA Youth Cup with a 3-1 home win over Horndean.<\/p>\n<p>The lower league side gave the U&#8217;s a good game but second-half goals from Kasway Burton, fellow U16s forward Harrison Bradney and an injury-time third from Enrique Tiamuna saw Oxford progress, despite a late consolation for the visitors.<\/p>\n<h3>Oxford United Through to FA Cup Third Round<\/h3>\n<p>Oxford&#8217;s senior side progressed to the third round of the FA Cup with a 4-1 win over Exeter City.<\/p>\n<p>Matty Taylor opened the scoring against the Grecians and a late Bodin brace and Cameron Brannagan strike secured the win.<\/p>\n<p>Exeter did score late on to end Oxford&#8217;s chances of a clean sheet but the result was beyond doubt by that point.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While the majority of the country will be focusing on the World Cup, it was the FA Cup that took centre stage for Oxford United.
