Moses Odubajo's late goal clinched a victory for Leyton Orient against Walsall in League One.

The O's took the lead when Lloyd James's header found David Mooney, who turned and slid the ball between Saddlers keeper Aaron McCarey's legs.

Sam Mantom then equalised for the West Midlands club with a fabulous 30-yard drive into the top right-hand corner.

However late on Mooney headed on Dean Cox's cross and Odubajo arrived in the six-yard box to score the winner.

Orient have now won nine of their last 10 games in all competitions and taken 18 points from a possible 21 in the league.

VIEW FROM THE DRESSING ROOM

Leyton Orient manager Russell Slade told BBC London 94.9:

"Jamie Jones pulled off two great saves and I was delighted.

"As a group, we stood together and we weren't great until we got the goal.

"But we got the goal and then I thought we were the better side.

"At the end of the day, it's a double over Walsall, it's six points and we can't ask for anymore."
