Player Rater Results – Bradford City 2-1 Walsall

There are times in football, and in the life of teams that go on to win titles, where the fans come away from the match scratching their heads about how their team actually won the match. This was certainly the case when Bradford City entertained Walsall at Valley Parade, especially in the first half when until the last five minutes of the half, there was nothing to suggest the Bantams deserved anything from the game. The fact that the Man of the Match vote went to Harry Lewis for his performance and his first half penalty save perhaps sums up what you need to know about this match. However, it may not have been the best performance supporters have seen this season but City still came away with three points and there was the sight of Dion Pereira in a Bradford City shirt, along with an exciting display from the other loanee signed on transfer deadline day, Tyreik Wright, which gives fans cause to feel very optimistic about the outcome of the season.
