Smith Scores In Oxford U23 Win Over Hull City
Bermuda’s Jonte Smith – who recently signed with Oxford United — scored as Oxford’s Under-23 side earned a 3-0 win over Hull City, marking his second in two games since signing and fourth in three games since arriving on trial.
The club’s match report said, “Jonte Smith, Owen James and Kyran Lofthouse were on the mark as Oxford United’s under-23 side put in a fine performance to beat Hull City 3-0 at Thame United’s ASM Stadium/
“A penalty from new arrival Smith, a well-placed header from young forward James and a last-minute strike from Lofthouse earned the young U’s a deserved victory that keeps them in the competition with one game left at Wolves next Friday.
“The U’s fielded a side that mixed senior players such as Samir Carruthers and Sam Long with a number of their successful under-18 side, but it was Bermudian international Smith who put them ahead on the stroke of half time with a penalty – his second in two games since signing and fourth in three games since arriving on trial.
