Leyton Orient got the better of relegation-threatened Cambridge to extend their unbeaten run of league matches to six.

Orient have now taken 16 out of the last 18 points and have not conceded in that period as goals by Ollie O'Neill and Jamie Donley overcame the lowly visitors.

The visiting U's were denied the lead when Orient goalkeeper Josh Keeley produced a magnificent reaction save after seven minutes to deny Dan Nlundulu.

The home side opened the scoring after 32 minutes following sublime skill from Dan Agyei. The striker turned past two defenders and squared the ball back from the byline for O'Neill to apply the finishing touch.

On the stroke of half-time, the dangerous Agyei shrugged off two tackles in a 40-yard run before blazing his shot high and wide of the target.

Cambridge showed little attacking threat after the break and the O's sealed victory when Charlie Kelman crossed for Donley to stab home from close range.
