A group of Oxford United fans delighted the football community on Monday night as they found a cheeky way of watching their side's FA Cup clash with Arsenal at a sold-out Kassam Stadium.

The west end of the ground famously houses a car park rather than a stand, and one cold-looking group of supporters took advantage of this as they stood on top of a car to watch the game from outside the ground.
It produced giggles from the commentary team and a pair of passing officials, as Oxford were beaten 3-0 by Arsenal despite a valiant performance against the Premier League leaders.

Fans were equally taken with the show of support on twitter, as several tweeted it was 'the magic of the FA Cup' and 'why we love the third round'.
Despite the result, Oxford boss Karl Robinson was pleased with the way his side has fought, as he told ITV: 'My players did the football club proud, we fought in all areas of the game, we didn’t look that far apart against a top level team.'
The win for Arsenal means they will face title rivals Manchester City in the fourth round of the Cup.




It will come at the end of a tricky period for the Gunners that sees them face North London rivals Tottenham and Manchester United, the only team to beat them so far this seaso
Manager Mikel Arteta played down the City game after the game. He told ITV: 'We go game by game. We have a big game against Spurs and need to prepare for that one. My job I to make those players as good as they can be.'
On his side's hard-fought if ultimately comfortable win over Oxford, he said: 'Its always tough to win in these rounds, they make it really difficult for you and you have to be patient, we were and we got the goals in the end.'
