DELIGHTED Stuart McCall hailed a terrific team performance as City chalked up their first win of the season at Peterborough.

Jordy Hiwula’s first-half header proved enough in a game the Bantams could have won by more.

But the victory wiped away the frustration of their EFL Cup exit at Accrington four days earlier.

McCall, celebrating the opening win of his second spell at the Valley Parade helm, said: “This is the first time of the season we can say we got what we deserved.

“Individually there were so many good performances. The defensive unit was terrific, we got the full backs forward, the midfield three, Mark Marshall really worked hard and the front two were a threat.

“The only negative is it should have been a lot more comfortable. We dominated lots of aspects of the game.

“We got fantastic backing and I think both the supporters and the players deserved that result.”

Hiwula scored the only goal after 11 minutes when he nodded home from Tony McMahon’s cross – the first City have scored this season.

McCall added: “He’s had chances last two games but at least he got shots off. That will give him a lift.”
