Bradford City Triumphs Over Stoke in Carabao Cup
League One's Bradford City continued their impressive start to the season by defeating Championship leaders Stoke City in the second round of the Carabao Cup.
The Bantams took an early lead when Will Swan headed in a corner from Tyreik Wright. Brad Halliday extended their advantage to 2-0 by halftime with a powerful strike.
Stoke City, making ten changes from the team that secured a victory against Southampton in the league on Saturday, struggled to create significant scoring opportunities.
George Lapslie sealed the victory for the visitors by tapping in a rebound after Jack Bonham had saved Swan's initial attempt.
This win keeps Bradford City unbeaten this season, following their earlier triumph over second-tier Blackburn in the first round, while Stoke's perfect start to the campaign has come to an end.
