Daniel Agyei Scores Early as Leyton Orient Thrashes Newport County 4-1 in EFL Cup
English-born Ghanaian forward Daniel Agyei played a key role in Leyton Orient’s dominant 4-1 victory over Newport County in the EFL Cup on Tuesday evening. Agyei made an immediate impact, scoring just one minute into the match with a precise left-footed strike from the center of the box, assisted by Jayden Sweeney.
The game, held at the Gaughan Group Stadium, saw Agyei start and play for 59 minutes before being substituted. Leyton Orient controlled the match, with Diallang Jaiyesimi adding a second goal just before halftime. Brandon Cooper and Charlie Kelman further extended the lead, while Newport’s only goal came from James Clarke.
This convincing win not only boosts Leyton Orient’s morale but also strengthens their head-to-head record against Newport. The team now looks ahead to their upcoming League One match against Charlton Athletic.
