Leyton Orient 3-0 Stevenage

Jay Simpson has two goals in four games this season

Leyton Orient maintained their winning start to the League Two season with a comfortable victory over Stevenage.

It took until the 74th minute for the hosts to go in front when Jay Simpson headed in Dean Cox's cross.

Blair Turgott added a second from 18 yards for his first Orient goal, before another summer arrival, Ollie Palmer, also grabbed his first goal.

Brett Williams and Dipo Akinyemi hit the post for Stevenage in the first half, as Orient went top of the league.

Stevenage manager Teddy Sheringham told BBC Three Counties Radio:

"It's not about doing stuff for 45 or 50 minutes. It's a 90-minute game. You've got to be clued in. You can't do it for 55 and think you'll get away with it.

"We've had chances to get ourselves in front and that's the disappointing thing. You've got to be resilient all over the pitch, it's not just about half-chances. When you're in good positions you've got to dominate teams.

"We need to get accustomed to what it takes to win football matches and get ruthless with each other. Perhaps no more of the 'Mr Nice Guy' and enjoying the surroundings."
