Bradford City claimed a crucial 2-1 victory over Leyton Orient in a feisty encounter that saw 10 yellow cards and a decisive red card. Antoni Sarcevic proved to be the match-winner with a well-taken brace, first cancelling out Ollie O'Neill's equalizer before capitalizing on Aden Baldwin's 75th-minute dismissal to secure all three points. The turning point came when Baldwin was shown a straight red for a reckless challenge, leaving Orient to defend their slender advantage with 10 men for the final quarter-hour. This result will boost Bradford's League One campaign significantly, while Orient will rue their lack of discipline in what became an increasingly fractious affair with both sides picking up multiple bookings for arguments and time-wasting.
