Leyton Orient 3 Barnet 1
The O’s maintained their unbeaten start to the season stopping the Bees run of five straight wins in the process. Poor marking led to Josh Coulson putting the home side in front after 12 minutes. The lead should have doubled seven minutes later but Mark Cousins somehow managed to keep Macauley Bonne’s point blank header out of the net. Gaining in confidence after that Barnet were level after 25 minutes when David Tutonda set up Wes Fonguck for a superb finish into the top right corner. The second half lacked the intensity of the first until Chey Alexander’s misplaced pass fell to James Dayton who curled the ball round Cousins to put Orient back in front. The points were sealed when Macauley Bonne pounced on his own rebound from the right hand post to drive the ball home 12 minutes from time.
