Wrexham secured a 1-0 victory over Oxford United with Josh Windass's decisive goal, moving the Welsh club into the Sky Bet Championship play-off positions. The win, powered by Windass's fifth goal in six games, saw Wrexham leapfrog Hull on goal difference as the Tigers drew 2-2 at Leicester. This result strengthens Wrexham's bid for a historic fourth consecutive promotion.

Oxford now faces the grim prospect of relegation to League One, potentially joining Leicester and Sheffield Wednesday. The Us will be relegated on Wednesday if Charlton draws against Ipswich and Blackburn beats Sheffield United. Before kickoff, Oxford honored their 1986 League Cup triumph with footage on the big screen, but the current reality is far less celebratory for the struggling club.

Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson praised his team's performance, noting they showed "two sides to our game" - controlling possession in the first half and defending resolutely in the second against Oxford's desperate attacks. With crucial fixtures against league champions Coventry and fifth-placed Middlesbrough ahead, Wrexham's Premier League dream remains alive, while Oxford must regroup quickly to avoid the drop.
