The Big Kick Off: 5 Teams Who Impressed On The Opening Day

2. Oldham Athletic

Result: Stevenage 3-4 Oldham Athleticoldham jose Oldham and Stevenage took part in what was perhaps the weekends most exciting game, A lot of people, myself included think that Oldham could be a surprise package this season and a quick look at their attacking options tell us why. After falling 1-0 down thanks to a Darius Charles goal, Lee Johnson€™s men began firing on all cylinders, with goals from James Tarkowski, Jose Baxter and Christian Montano giving them a 3-1 lead. However Stevenage weren€™t planning to go down without a fight and a goal a piece from Greg Tansey and Filipe Morais pulled them level. There was to be another twist in the tale though as Oldham€™s Jose Baxter stepped up to take another penalty (he had missed one earlier but scored the rebound) which he tucked away giving Oldham all three points.
