Cambridge United edged out Cheltenham Town 1-0 in their EFL Two opener at the Abbey Stadium. A second-half goal gave the U's a winning start to the new season. In a match of few clear opportunities, Cambridge United showed more attacking intent as the game progressed. The deadlock was finally broken when a well-worked move resulted in the only goal of the game. Cheltenham Town offered little in response, failing to seriously test the Cambridge goalkeeper. The victory sends Cambridge to the top of the early league table, while Cheltenham must find more creativity in attack after a blunt opening display.
