    Leyton Orient cruised to a 2-0 win over Dagenham at Victoria Road to progress into the third round of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy.

    Jay Simpson put the O's ahead after just five minutes when he slotted past the onrushing Liam O'Brien following Shaun Batt's through ball. Simpson smashed an effort against the post three minutes later from 30 yards out as the League One side dominated the opening stages. Darius Henderson headed just wide midway through the first half before Simpson hit the post with another headed effort as Daggers came under more pressure. The League Two side did respond towards the end of the first period and Scott Doe had a shot cleared off the line in the 41st minute by O's skipper Nathan Clarke to ensure it was 1-0 at the break. Ade Yusuff could have levelled in the 56th minute following a swift Daggers counter attacker but fired over the bar. And the visitors ensured their progression in the 69th minute when substitute Dean Cox's ball into the box fell perfectly for Simpson and he smashed into the roof of the net to send the O's though.
