Oxford United defender Elliot Moore is full of pride reaching the Championship after their League One promotion playoff final win against Bolton Wanderers.

Josh Murphy struck twice at Wembley as Oxford won 2-0. It marks a return to the Championship after a 25 year absence.

Elliott said, "What a feeling. I can't put it into words what kind of feeling that is.

"Everyone associated with Oxford deserves that. Management and the fans were a different class tonight.

"[Bolton] are a very good side. We had to come with a game plan and we did it brilliantly.

"It's been an up and down season for everyone. We had a rocky patch but [Des Buckingham] came in, settled it down and we've put in some good performances. That was one of the best.

"The fans have been brilliant throughout the season. To celebrate with them today, they deserve it as much as we do."
