Oxford United boss Matt Bloomfield admitted that he was "terribly dissapointed" to not pick up all three points in their draw with Portsmouth on Monday.
The U's came from behind to take the lead against Pompey before conceding a late goal which saw the points shared.
The result means that Oxford jump above Leicester but remain in the bottom three with the Foxes playing away at Sheffield Wednesday in the later kick off on Monday
"We worked so incredibly hard to get our noses in front in the game against a tough opposition in such an incredible atmosphere," Bloomfield told BBC Radio Oxford.
"We feel terribly disappointed that we are not walking away with three points, we need to make sure we improve on conceding late goals like this.
"Nothing was decided today (in the relegation picture) it's my job now as the leader of the group to pick everybody up and make sure we get ready for the game at the weekend.
"We still have five games to go and we'll keep hunting."
Oxford are next in action on Saturday when they host Watford at the Kassam Stadium
