West Ham defender Reece Burke shines on Bradford debut

West Ham United defender Reece Burke enjoyed an excellent debut for Bradford City in the derby stalemate with Barnsley.

Bantams boss Phil Parkinson handed Burke, who signed on-loan last week, a full 90 for the 0-0 draw played out in front of over 10,000 fans.

Parkinson was delighted with their defensive display afterwards: “We were disciplined and committed without the ball.

"That is how we have got to play to get results. We have got a lot of new players and players who came in late who are getting up to speed.

"But that's the best we have played over ninety minutes this season."
