 An opportunity to move into second place in Ligue 1 for Bradford City this afternoon, but a tough task ahead of them as they come up against the Rochdale side. They've won seven of their last nine games. So with Bolton not playing until tomorrow, a chance for Bradford to move into the top two. It's Rochdale coming forwards here. An opportunity for them perhaps, but a strong challenge comes in. Calvin Andrew, of course, for Rochdale this afternoon. Henderson as well. They are there. Main sources of goals. A chance here for them. Flash just wide. A real opening. Andrew Cannon couldn't take it. Will Rochdale carry this afternoon without Henderson. Or without Andrew. They've started well hit. Camps tussling on the edge of the area. And there's Lang to Camps. People towards the far post. Left side flag was up, but Sattelmeier didn't know that in the Bradford goal. Bradford to really click into gear so far in this game. Rochdale certainly been the brighter of the two sides. Marshall skips inside and looks to weave his way through the challenges. That has to be a yellow car for Canavan. Indeed, it is. Marshall's run abruptly brought to an end. A decent opportunity here to test Josh Lillis in the Rochdale goal. Effort comes in, but it's a comfortable save for the Rochdale keeper. Bradford, 3-8 from this corner. He forgets a punch only to the edge of the area. The strike comes in. Appeals for Handball. The strike from Nicky Law. Pressure starting to build as Bradford. Find a rhythm here this afternoon. Rochdale, of course, in fine form. As we mentioned, seven wins from their last nine. Bangerus, Paul in. Who wonder though, Bantakalvin, Andrew will affect them. Taking quickly. Hansen gives chase, but it was always asking a lot of him. It's a very poor clearance though. Bradford unable to capitalise. Was ever inside the Northern Commercial Stadium this afternoon. He was watched out too far to travel and for decent numbers as well. And to turn away there, Josh Cullen from the attentions of Andrew Cannon. And Bradford the free kick, Nicky Law. Beginning to grow from Bradford as we move towards half-time. 8-1-2 to Nicky Law. Sends in the cross off his left foot. Breaks for Clark. And Bradford take the lead. Sixth lead goal of the season for Billy Clark. And Bradford make the breakthrough just before half-time. Pressure had been building. Found his way across to Clark. Nillis went to his left, but he couldn't keep it out. Bradford themselves the lead. Pass played forwards. Marshall give chase over on the far side. He came out on top with defensive work for a second here before half-time. Took the traffic over on that far side. Effort comes in. Nillis tips it around the post, does he? Born as a Bradford. Born as sent in. And off clears the danger. And back in the end with the head up. It's two. Bradford double le just before half-time. Rock style undone once more. Another ball into the box. And there was Timothy DeAnke with his second lead goal of the season. Got onto it early. A fine glancing header beyond Josh Nillis. Stuart McCall's side are in a very strong position. Way back into this game. He comes to the corner. The header comes in. Just have struck his own man in there. Can Bradford get it away? He law steps in. And he works out all right in the end for Bradford. Plays it forwards first time. Strong challenge. And he could be in real trouble here. Canavan has already been booked. And then Rochedale are going to play the final 32 minutes of this game. A man short. Josh Cullen turning away. Oh God. Marshall over this free kick. She sends it in. Kept out by Nillis. But there's Hanson reacting first to his own. Head up. Nillis got down low to keep it out. There was Hanson following it up. It's three for Bradford. And surely all three points. Rose Highest. He was the first to react as well. Three in two lead games for him now. He scored twice in the win against AFC Wimbledon a couple of weeks ago. He surely made short of the points here for Bradford. Chase on hit. And away by Nillis. Now Marshall had a decent afternoon on the right side of that Bradford midfield. Cullen taken down once more. Coming to be a real tricky customer. Josh Cullen growing reputation he carries. Marshall steps up and he makes it four. Fine free kick. Nillis rooted to the spot. And Marshall has had a fine, fine game for Bradford. He's rewarded with a goal. Just cleared the wall. And Nillis just turned to his left. And saw the ball strike the back of his net for a fourth time this afternoon. No doubt about it. Bradford heading into the top two on defeat for them. So far in the league this season. Coming away at Oxford in the middle of October to an end. Their best ever unbeaten start to a season. Inside the league wants to lose this season. Chance for a fifth. Nillis Hansen, challenge made by Mendes Lank. He's turning into a long 90 minutes now for Rochedale. A man short and four goals down to the game brightly. But that's just before half time which is going to cost them. Those goals for Clark and the end in the final four minutes of the half. Bradford in search of number five. Nillis pushes it away. Left it from the rice. Just looking to add further gloss to the score line. Now here's Cullen probing away on the edge of the area once more. Wasn't too far away. Got a wonderful afternoon. Time all but up here to find a way through. But there is the full-time whistle. Bradford putting Rochedale to the sword. Goals from Clark, Dieng, Hansen and Marshall. A fine afternoon for them. They're into second place in lead one. Bradford City four. Rochedale Nill.
