Martin double downs Bantams

Yeovil secured their second away win of the season in Sky Bet League One with a deserved 3-1 success at Bradford.

Two goals from defender Aaron Martin, a summer signing from Birmingham City, earned the Glovers a 2-1 half-time lead and another close season signing, midfielder Ajay Leitch-Smith, put the result beyond doubt with a third goal.

The visitors went in front in the eighth minute when Sam Foley's left-wing corner was headed high into the net from close range by Martin, who doubled his side's lead after 22 minutes with a headed goal at the far post from Foley's free-kick.

Bradford pulled a goal back in the 26th minute when Alan Sheehan's left-wing corner found Rory McArdle unmarked and the defender scored with a header.

But Yeovil continued to be the more dangerous side and scored a third goal after 73 minutes.

Midfielder Jack Price, on-loan from Wolves, cut the ball back from the left into the path of Leitch-Smith, who scored with a smart left-footed shot into the top corner.
