NEWPORT County AFC manager Justin Edinburgh was pleased with his side's 0-0 draw at leaders Oxford United last night.

Edinburgh said: "It wasn't a vintage performance in possession of the ball, but it's certainly very, very good without the ball.

"I thought we looked solid. [We] restricted Oxford to very few chances and at the end Christian Jolley's nearly snatched it for us.

"Whether or not we would have deserved it I don't know. But to come to the league leaders and again not look like conceding - we're certainly delighted with that.

"[We] perhaps didn't have that cutting edge in the game as we would have liked and as we have done a lot of times this season.

"But I certainly feel it was a very good performance."
