Second-half goals from Joe Partington, Chris Lines and Liam Sercombe saw Bristol Rovers come from behind to record a 3-1 Sky Bet League One win over Bradford at the Memorial Stadium.
The visitors took a 38th-minute lead when Rovers midfielder Ollie Clarke stumbled inside the box, put his hand to the ground to ease his fall and inadvertently kicked the ball against it.
Referee Lee Swabey decided Clarke had gained an advantage and pointed to the spot, allowing Charlie Wyke to beat Adam Smith with a low penalty to the goalkeeper's right.
Rovers equalised on 53 minutes, Partington finding space to score with a tame volley past unsighted goalkeeper Rouven Sattelmaier as Bradford failed to clear a Lines corner.
Lines put the home side ahead from the spot on 84 minutes, sending Sattelmaier the wrong way, after Ellis Harrison had been tripped by Nathaniel Knight-Percival.
And after Romain Vincelot had grazed a post for Bradford with a header, Sercombe cut in from the left to bury a right-footed drive from 12 yards.
