Result: Leyton Orient ease to Doncaster Rovers win

Leyton Orient move out of League One's bottom four with victory against Doncaster Rovers at the Keepmoat Stadium.

Leyton Orient have moved out of the League One relegation zone after a comfortable victory away to Doncaster Rovers.

The Londoners were ahead inside two minutes when Jay Simpson rounded off a fast-paced counter-attack to beat Jed Steer with a low shot.

With the game less than 10 minutes old, Orient had threatened to pull clear of their opponents as Chris Dagnall's shot flew inches wide.

Marc de Val had Doncaster's first chance of note when he hit the target, but he was thwarted by Gary Woods before the O's keeper kept out a Nathan Tyson effort.

Moments before the interval, Tyson then squandered Rovers' best opportunity of the half as he was denied again by Woods.

On 62 minutes, Orient put daylight between the sides when Darius Henderson caught Steer well off his line, and the former Nottingham Forest target man coolly lobbed the ball over the stranded Rovers keeper to score.

A close-range effort from Jamie McCombe was saved by Woods late on, but the O's were otherwise able see out a victory that pulls them up to mid-table, but still leaves the Londoners just two points off the drop zone.
