Caldwell's men battle back

Caldwell's men battle back

Gary Caldwell's men scraped a point

An uncharacteristic Grecians performance had looked like resulting in a 2-0 away defeat to Leyton Orient, but Millenic Alli's first goal for the club two minutes from time, and Will Aimson's leveller in stoppage time sealed an unlikely point for Gary Caldwell's men.

The Exeter City manager said after the game: "We had to work hard for it to come back from behind.

"In the first half it was pretty even and then Orient came into the game, and I said to the players i wanted more intensity in the second half.

"The two goals we give away are really poor, outwith that I don't think they created a lot of chances and later in the game I thought we created enough chances to win.

"There was great fighting spirit at the end to keep the unbeaten run going and it's another point on the board.

"We look to the last three games and see what we can get from them."
