Oldham manager John Sheridan told BBC Radio Manchester:
"It was a good team performance against a good footballing side in a difficult place to come. It's full credit to the players to come out with three points from the game.
"It's a great strike from Cameron, he's finished well with his weak foot and it was a great start. He's got that in his locker and he's a great little player.
"I was disappointed to go in level at half-time, but I thought our second half performance was really good. We looked really strong and were pushing on to get a winner and we did."
