The press and English football fans have dubbed the result as one of the most ridiculous upsets in the history of the competition. Especially when compared to other like Manchester City's comeback against Tottenham Hotspur in 2004 or the 1988 FA Cup Final between Liverpool and Wimbledon. Former Liverpool player, Robbie Fowler, and former Tottenham player, Jermaine Jenas, described the game as "the greatest FA Cup upset", as the Bantams had "too many odds against them". Bradford won the FA Cup Giant-Killing Award as a result, for the biggest FA Cup giant-killing of the season.
