Hartlepool United secured their first away win of the new season as they beat Bradford City 3-1 – but how did the players fare?
A brace from full league debutant put Pools in control before Paudie O’Connor headed Bradford back into the game going into the closing stages.
What threatened to be a nervy end to the game proved to be anything but as Yann Songo’o turned Reagan Ogle’s cross into his own net to put the result beyond doubt in stoppage time.

Was tidy in possession and did the dirty work well when called upon. Came close to scoring in the second half. Photo: FRANK REID 2020
In the perfect place a minute in to end Pools' run of 521 minutes without an away goal on his first league start. Doubled Pools lead on the hour mark with another poacher's goal. Couldn't ask for anything more. Photo: HUFC
Showed good composure to slide in Holohan in the build up to the opening goal. Should have doubled Pools' lead with a goal himself in the first half. Photo: Mark Fletcher
