Bizarre turn of events sees added time played after the break at Leyton Orient

30 October 2021

Leyton Orient’s Sky Bet League Two clash with Hartlepool saw a bizarre turn of events as two minutes of first-half stoppage time were played out at the start of the second half.

Referee Alan Young seemingly ignored a number of additional minutes as he brought the first 45 minutes to a close with the U’s leading 2-0.

The teams came out after the interval shooting towards the same goals that they had been in the opening half before a whistle was blown and the players changed ends.

Orient thought they had added a third goal in that spell of time added on, only for Aaron Drinan’s effort to be ruled out for offside.
