Bobby Pointon scores twice as Bradford beat Huddersfield

Bobby Pointon scored twice as Bradford saw off Huddersfield to maintain their 100 per cent home record in League One this season with a 3-1 win.

All of Bradford’s goals came in the first half, with Pointon keeping up his run of scoring in every game at Valley Parade this term.

Huddersfield won five corners in the first 10 minutes as they made a strong start with Joe Taylor’s shot hitting the bar.

But it was Bradford who scored first from an end-to-end move as Josh Neufville’s cross was helped on by Will Swan for Pointon to convert.

Bradford had the better of the rest of the first half – and then struck twice in added time.

Pointon grabbed his second after Antoni Sarcevic flicked on from Aden Baldwin’s pass.

They immediately scored a third as Huddersfield allowed Neufville’s low cross to sneak in at the far post.

Swan smacked the bar in the second half before the visitors, who had not seriously threatened a comeback, pulled one back through Zepiqueno Redmond.
