A point apiece at Orient's top-of-the-table clash with Stevenage

Leyton Orient 0-0 Stevenage
by Layth Yousif
at Brisbane Road

IT PROVED to be a point apiece after League Two’s top-of-the-table clash between Leyton Orient and Stevenage ended in a goalless draw.

In a full-blooded match in the East End of London, neither side could break down the other in front of a crowd of 8,644, which included 1,044 travelling fans, Stevenage’s best away support of the season.

Richie Welllens’s side came into the match with four wins on the bounce in front of the Sky Sports cameras, with the match between league leaders and second place Boro quite rightly chosen for live coverage.
