League One round-up
Ryan Trevitt fired Exeter to the top of the League One table on goal difference as leaders Oxford suffered a day to forget.
Trevitt's 75th-minute strike was enough to secure a 1-0 win at Burton for the Grecians, who like Bolton, Stevenage and Port Vale, leapfrogged the U's, beaten 2-1 at home by the Valiants in a dramatic finish having been reduced to nine men.
Alex Iacovitti put Vale ahead after striker Mark Harris' 63rd-minute dismissal for violent conduct and although Greg Leigh levelled at the end, he too departed prematurely for a second bookable offence before substitute Alfie Devine won it from the penalty spot deep into stoppage time.
Tyrese Fornah's own goal handed Bolton a 2-1 win over Derby after Conor Hourihane and Dion Charles had traded penalties and Rams goalkeeper Joe Wildsmith had been sent off for handling outside his area.
