The U’s began on the front foot, pressing their opponents high up the pitch, with Ruben Rodrigues firing a volley at Jed Steer in the Posh goal.
Ephron Mason-Clark then tested Jamie Cumming at his near post, while Tyler Goodrham sent a fizzing volley from distance narrowly off target.

Elliott Moore had the chance to give United the lead, but he headed over from a corner six minutes before half-time.
Eight minutes into the second half, Moore did nudge the U’s in front. Josh Murphy swung a corner to the back post, where Cameron Brannagan nodded back across goal for Moore to head home from close range.
The visitors searched for an equaliser, but were unable to find one, with Ricky-Jade Jones and Harrison Burrows both sending efforts straight at Cumming.
