MK Dons 1 Bradford City 4: Latest from Bantams

The Bantams started the day just two points behind second-placed Wigan, having taken 23 points from their opening 11 games.

And the visitors found themselves playing against 10 men after just five minutes, when Dons’ Aaron Tshibola was sent off early on.

Romain Vincelot made the numerical advantage count on 11 minutes, firing in from a corner.

And the one-way traffic continued, Nicky Law feeding Charlie Wyke who blasted home to make it 2-0 on 18 minutes.

Ethan Ebanks-Landell pulled a goal back for MK Dons in first-half stoppage time.

But Bradford held their nerve, before adding a third goal on 71 minutes, Wyke bagging his second of the afternoon.

Paul Taylor secured all three points on 82 minutes, netting for the Bantams.
