Neil Lennon 'very pleased' by Bolton Wanderers triumph

Lennon 'very pleased' by Bolton triumph

Bolton Wanderers boss Neil Lennon has hailed his side for earning a 2-1 win at promotion-chasing Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship.

The Trotters edged closer to the top half of the table on Saturday as goals from Liam Feeney and Darren Pratley gave them the points at Hillsborough.

Lennon believes that his players can now look towards a top-10 finish after recording their third victory in five games.

"We're getting further and further away from the bottom three, which is great. We can maybe look forward to challenging the top 10," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport.

"To come away from home and play as well as we did is very pleasing. We got off to a great start and played some super football. With our performance in the first half and the chances we created in the second half, it could have been a more comfortable win."

Bolton are back in action next Saturday when they travel to Liverpool in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
