Forest Green out of the bottom two after Christian Doidge double downs Bradford
.
Forest Green moved out of the League Two relegation zone with a 2-0 win at Bradford.
Christian Doidge scored in the first minute and added a second from the spot in second-half stoppage time to earn Steve Cotterill鈥檚 side a fourth victory in seven league games.
Defeat ended Bradford鈥檚 six-match unbeaten run in the league.
The visitors made the fast start with a goal inside the first minute.
Jonathan Tomkinson conceded a corner from Forest Green鈥檚 opening attack and Dominic Thompson鈥檚 delivery was nodded home by Doidge.
Cotterill鈥檚 side could have doubled their lead soon after as Charlie McCann fired over from Emmanuel Osadebe鈥檚 low cross.
Tyreik Wright had Bradford鈥檚 first threat on the Rovers goal, flicking into the side-netting after Lewis Richards picked him out in the box.
Richard Smallwood set up Wright for another chance just before half-time but visiting goalkeeper Vicente Reyes managed to smuggle it away from the near post.
Bradford livened up in the second half with Jamie Walker鈥檚 arrival and Reyes produced a superb save to deny the substitute.
But Doidge made sure of Forest Green鈥檚 win in added time with a penalty after Ciaran Kelly tripped McCann.
