Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Bradford City thrashed FC Halifax Town 6-1 in a Club Friendly, with Will Swan scoring twice, though the standout player on the day was Halifax's Tom Pugh. The gulf in class was evident from the opening stages as the visitors raced into a three-goal lead inside ten minutes.

Will Swan opened the scoring in the 2nd minute, Kayden Jackson added a second in the 5th, and Nick Powell made it three in the 10th, all before Halifax pulled one back through David Kawa in the 39th minute. Bradford then restored their three-goal cushion just before the break when Swan scored his second in the 45th minute, before Harry Ibbitson and Bobby Pointon added further gloss with goals in the 75th and 76th minutes respectively.

Despite the one-sided scoreline, the match statistics were remarkably even, with both sides sharing 50% possession and Halifax actually winning the corner count 3-1, though they created little of note from them. Tom Pugh was the standout player for the hosts, earning a rating of 5.93 out of ten in a heavy defeat. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Bradford City and the result confirmed that prediction.
