Bradford 1-1 Mansfield: Alfie Kilgour leaves it late to earn Stags a point
Saturday 4 February 2023 19:23, UK
Alfie Kilgour headed a stoppage-time equaliser for Mansfield to earn a 1-1 draw at Bradford.
Kilgour nodded home Elliott Hewitt's cross to cancel out Andy Cook's first-half goal for the home side.
Cook, starting his first game since Boxing Day, scored his 17th of the season when he headed in a corner from Adam Clayton.
Abo Eisa and Jamie Walker had good chances for Bradford before Cook's goal.
Mansfield manager Nigel Clough was forced into making three substitutions in the first 36 minutes after injuries to Louis Reed, Rhys Oates and Callum Johnson.
