The Bantams ended Dons dreams of FA Cup glory when they beat them 2-1 this weekend.

League One side MK Dons got off to a bad start and it cost them but Bradford battled through and credit must be given to Stuart McCall's boys.

Omar Daley put the Bantams ahead after only two minutes with a stinging shot which stunned the Dons.

It took the Dons almost fourty minutes to find an answer to Daley's strike but Jemal Johnson brought the scores level and it looked as though the League One side might take it until Graeme Lee's excellent free-kick shattered the Don's illusions and sent Bradford through.

MK Dons manager Roberto Di Matteo told BBC Three Counties Radio:

"I was pleased with 70 minutes from my team. It was a bad start and I wasn't happy with that at all.

"I was disappointed with the early goal that ruined our game plan.

"We showed a good reaction though and the second half was good."
