ADAM Murray gave Mansfield Town a first victory of the season as he smashed in the winner with two minutes to go against Oxford United.
The Stags took the lead after 39 minutes when Chris Clements curled in a 25-yard free-kick which was tipped onto the post with Ryan Tafazolli there to head in the rebound.
The central defender almost got his second on the stroke of half-time when he headed a Clements free-kick just wide.
Mansfield started the second half well, but they were unable to double the lead. Oxford grew in stature and levelled from the spot after 79 minutes through Danny Hylton after he was fouled by Tafazolli near the byline.
Stags rallied again and with two minutes left Murray won it with a screamer against his former club, lashing in as the ball broke to him.
Stags: Studer, Sutton, Dempster (c), Tafazolli, Beevers, Taylor, Clements, McGuire, Heslop, Fisher, Clucas; Subs Subs: A Bell, F Bell, Jones, Palmer, Marsden, Thomas, Murray.
