Bolton grab superb victory

19 April 2008 - 16:34

Bolton grabbed a remarkable 1-0 victory over Middlesbrough in the Premiership on Saturday at the Riverside to put their Premiership survival chances back on track.

  • Predicted Arsenal line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Chelsea, Odegaard starts
  • Mikel Arteta confirms Arsenal star is doubtful to face Chelsea

  • Early on, on the touchline, Gary Megson was going crazy with angst as he watched his side battle poorly against Boro. In contrast, Gareth Southgate was relaxed and anticipating his side scoring the opening goal of the game - but it wasn't to come.



    Bolton snatched the lead courtesy of Gavin McCann’s goal after 59 minutes, and though Middlesbrough continued to enjoy much of the possession, Gary Megson’s men held out to claim an invaluable win in their efforts to avoid the drop.



    Teams

    Middlesbrough: Turnbull, Young, Wheater, Pogatetz, Taylor (Rochemback 74’), Aliadiere, Boateng, Arca, Alves, Sanli (Johnson 64’). Subs: Steele, Shawky, Grounds



    Bolton Wanderers: Al Habsi, Steinsson, O’Brien, Cahill, Samuel, Nolan, Cohen (Guthrie 45’), Campo, McCann, Taylor, Rasiak (Diouf 54’). Subs: Walker, Giannakopoulos, Fojut
