Bradford City, Shrewsbury Town share 1-1 draw

Bradford City and Shrewsbury Town share a 1-1 draw in their League One clash at the Coral Windows Stadium.

Bradford City and Shrewsbury Town had to settle for a point each as goals from Billy Clarke and Tyrone Barnett resulted in a 1-1 draw in their League One clash.

The Bantams looked the most likely to break the deadlock in the first half and had their first chance through a deflected shot from Clarke which was tipped wide by Shrewsbury goalkeeper Jayson Leutwiler.

The away side improved as the half wore on and had an opportunity when Barnett's header from Matt Tootle's deep cross just lacked the power to beat Ben Williams.

Bradford should have taken the lead when Alan Sheehan's hooked effort was pushed onto the post by Leutwiler and Clarke could only drive the rebound into the side-netting.

Two minutes before half time, Clarke finally found the net when he drove forward from midfield and exchanged passes with Steven Davies before converting to give the home side a 1-0 lead.

That lead lasted just 30 seconds into the second half, however, as Connor Goldson's ball downfield was flicked on by James Collins for Barnett to roll in the equaliser.

Bradford could have restored their advantage when Clarke cut back to Stephen Darby, but the former Liverpool man's effort was cleared off the line by Goldson.

Both sides had chances to secure victory in the last quarter of the game but had to make do with a single point each after neither could find a winner.
