Welcome to Gryffin Park, where tonight Brentford find themselves 90 minutes away from Europe. As if playing in the first division wasn't enough, should Brentford avoid defeat in the match tonight against Oxford United and the preliminary round of the Anglo-Italian tournament, where Brentford will find themselves in the first round proper when they'll have the opportunity to play against four teams from the Italian first division. But when you look at the team news, Brentford today are really looking at utilising the whole squad. Bob Booker, Terry Evans, Graham Bensted, Murray Jones, Mickey Bennett and Dez Secretinsky are injured. Chris Houton, Simon Rackley, for Jamie Bates all play, or they're carrying injuries. Marcus Gale is similarly injured but has to be on the substitute bench. So their place is tonight for Billy Manuel who will feel Krasinski's ball-winning role in midfield and Kevin Godfrey who will form the spearhead with Gary Blissett. Paul Buckle makes the substitute bench for the first time this season. But there is no place for promising Channel Islander Grant Charmers who was in the original 15. Oxford United must win, it's as simple as that. Now you need a degree in differential calculus to work out the permutations tonight, but what it really comes down to is that Oxford must win by about three goals to nil or more to actually go through tonight. Their team tonight is missing highly rated midfielder Jim Magilton and there's a place tonight for John Narbert signing the closed season from Herapage United. Anyway, the prospect of Brentford in Europe is an exciting one. As Oxford get us underway, knowing they have to win tonight to have any chance at all of progressing. Jerry Payton looked very solid last Saturday looking for Blissett away from Evans. Joey Beechham. For Smiley, Godfrey, Oh and Blissett got in there after Godfrey laid them all back and volled it first time just over the bar. Good as a change there between Smiley, Godfrey and Blissett has Brentford seek the early goal. Away from Ratcliffe. Well, Manuel only gets it back to Narbert. There's Phillips. Not far wide. That's given the Oxford fans something to cheer about. Ratcliffe down the line, Blissett. Ratcliffe. And the ball took a deflection off, Kevin Godfrey forced Key to change direction quite hurriedly, but unfortunately the deflection took some of the pace off and the sting off the ball. Keep her safe comfortably. So I'm in play from Ratcliffe. Phillips gets the ball out to smart. Danger's on the overlap. John Narbert. Achilles. Durning. Oh, inside Bates. And wide. That was a real chance for Oxford. Durning, skinned his man, left Bates for dead. And just on the half hour, Cole the ball beyond Jerry Payton, but also wide of a post. Smart, not living up to his name by pinching at least five yards. We're trying to. Now the ball in the right place. And the ball headed on from Evans to Melville. Jerry Payton forced to turn the ball over the bar with both hands. So Oxford had two chances in the last couple of minutes. And then was just passed. That would have been a great goal. Now offside. I also know midfield there, but bless it. Come on it. Billion on to his left foot. That's Evans reddit before Godfrey. Durning is through. Payton just got it touch. Really, that's the end to come from nothing. Evans is quite forward, but Durning almost turned it into a goal. Godfrey makes a run for their post. He did it away. Good ball from Hayton to Bates. And the last come just wide. And a free header from six yards. And it was just passed the post when he might have done better. Putting short the Bates. A lot of height, but no distance whatsoever. And you will find Susan. Got a last come outside him. But cute on to his right foot. And he nearly spilled it. Straight at the keeper. Brent for so far just doing enough to hold on. Nill Nill will get them into the next round. And he may new heads it away. And last come found. That's by Godfrey. Great save. And another great save. A wonderful goal keeping there. And as Godfrey followed up. Paul Keo just caught there. A good save from last come. He was found well. He brought the ball under control. He hit it quickly. And he got down well to his left. But it seemed a certain goal. Kevin Godfrey came in for the rebound. Brent for the running cup. Clean sheets this season against full him twice. And that's the city. That's a good ball from Godfrey. A racquet of scored. Godfrey turned. A lovely ball to Simon racquet. And the second game running is open the scoring. So 28 minutes into the second half. Brent for the one. Oxford United Nill. Keo. Too hard for the keeper to hold. And the wave off this. From this it of smile this head. That was a fine effort from racquet. Now looking for blessed from millen. So come away. And Godfrey's won it. And this has scored a fine goal for Brentford. The state in the centre of the Oxford defence. The ball out to Kevin Godfrey. And the ball out to the ball. And the ball out to Kevin Godfrey. He's slid in a low centre. A Gary Vissett was there on the six yard line. So not the ball over the line for a seventh goal the season. Like all she's hitting that down the line. Who does? Melbourne the pressure. Back to his goalkeeper. We're now into injury time. Mr Wilts, look at his watch. Can't be much time now. And there in fact goes the final assault. A good second half before it's from Brentford. The final score. Brentford 2. Oxford United Nill.
