The Bannsiders, however, could have went ahead from a 30 yard free kick by centre back Jack Elliott that beat the Wolves keeper but came off the crossbar.

But their English counterparts were just too strong for the Coleraine boys and after Suleman Khan broke the deadlock on 21 minutes, tapping in from a low cross from the right, the writing was on the wall for the local team.

A further goal from a corner saw Filozofe Mabete head home from close range to go in 2-0 at the break.

The second period saw an early goal from Wolves Usman Khan to make it three. A mazy run on the right saw the winger cut in and slot under the advancing Coleraine keeper.

A missed penalty ensued for the English side before a neat free by Mason Rees made it 4-0.

Coleraine heads went down after this and a mistake by full-back Dylan Johnston let in striker Nathan Fraser to wrap things up for the English side. The final score was 5-0 and this Wolves team will no doubt go a long way in this year’s competition.

Impressive for Oxford were midfielders Joshua Johnson and Jack Doherty while up front, Jack Lynch and Kyle Riddle shone. Ballymena also had their star with full-back Clodagh Maguire holding her own against the Oxford attack.
