By Total Football News

Charlie Kelman converted a 93rd-minute penalty for Charlton Athletic as Oxford United lost two precious points in the Championship relegation fight.

Oxford were just minutes away from recording their fourth straight win and pulling three points clear of the drop zone when Ciaron Brown pulled back Lloyd Jones to give away the spot-kick.

The incident mirrored Oxford’s goal when Kayne Ramsay needlessly barged over Will Lankshear to concede a penalty,

Wrexham 1-0 Charlton Athletic: Josh Windass penalty earns hosts victory

By Total Football News

Ahead of kick-off, Phil Parkinson spoke about the “edge” between the sides as a result of the battles the pair had in the third tier last season – and the home fans aimed several chants at Addicks boss Nathan Jones from the outset.

The hosts survived a real scare just 40 seconds into the contest though as Isaac Olaofe was unable to prod the ball home after Sonny Carey’s effort

Blackburn Rovers: Kevin Gallacher on the denial of a Rovers penalty

By Total Football News

“I can’t believe it’s not a penalty. When you have skilful players like Todd Cantwell on the park you expect them to do something special. He’s driven into the box, he does a great Cruyff turn, the defender hasn’t a clue where he is, he slides… for me it’s a penalty.

“The officials are 15 yards away and can see it. You can see why sometimes managers pull their hair

Brentford 3-1 Man Utd: Bruno Fernandes misses penalty in United defeat

By Total Football News

For the second time this season Fernandes failed to convert a penalty that might have given United additional reward.

Whereas he ballooned his effort over the crossbar at Fulham, this time his aim was true. But Kelleher read it and Brentford cleared.

There are complaints over whether Collins should have been sent off for his grab at Mbeumo – the Premier League backed up referee Craig Pawson as it felt

Middlesbrough 2-1 Plymouth Argyle – Tommy Conway clinches win with stoppage-time penalty kick

By Total Football News

Tommy Conway scored a 93rd-minute penalty as Middlesbrough maintained their Championships play-off hopes against bottom side Plymouth Argyle.

But Conway’s spot-kick, awarded after he was pushed over by Joe Edwards, for which the Argyle captain was sent off, nudges the Devon club closer to relegation.

Miron Muslic’s side remain three points adrift of Derby County in 21st but with a far inferior goal difference and only three matches remaining.

Swansea City 1-0 Hull City: Zan Vipotnik scores contentious penalty

By Total Football News

The Swans had been looking nervously down the table when the gap between them and the drop zone was just six points as recently as last month.

But this winning streak means they are now closer to the play-off places than the bottom three – and still have the slimmest, barely plausible, chance of finishing inside the top six.

And while Alan Sheehan’s side are on an upward trajectory, they
