Aaron McLean has now scored three goals this season - but this was his first at home since April

Bradford City scored two goals in as many minutes to pile more misery on League One bottom club Crewe.

The Bantams had gone four home league games without a win.

But Aaron McLean gave City the lead in the 72nd minute with a header from Mark Yeates' cross, before Gary Liddle struck the second from outside the area after Filipe Morais' pull-back.

Crewe, for whom Chris Atkinson went close, have taken only four points from 11 games, conceding 29 goals.

Crewe boss Steve Davis withdrew on-loan Swansea City centre-half Alan Tate at half-time, replacing him with on-loan striker Febian Brandy in a tactical reshuffle.

Steve Davis told BBC Radio Stoke:

"Taking Alan Tate off was purely tactical. We felt we had enough out there to keep them out. That doesn't mean to say he won't be involved against Coventry this weekend.

"We found it difficult in the first half to get out and push them back and that is why we changed the formation.

"For 70-odd minutes we had defended reasonably well and it looked as though they were running out a bit but the centre-halves didn't quite sort out the marking and McLean has got between them to score.

"We kept trying to give the lads the best chance to keep things tight and give ourselves a chance. The players worked extremely hard and it was just those little errors that have cost us."
