David Ngog strikes late to seal Bolton Wanderers win

Ngog strikes late to seal Bolton win

Bolton Wanderers have come from behind to secure a 2-1 win over bitter rivals Burnley at the Reebok Stadium.

The visitors started brightly, with Darren Pratley being forced to clear after Ross Wallace had fired a dangerous ball across goal.

Dougie Freedman's men soon woke up, as Craig Dawson headed narrowly wide from Jay Spearing's corner.

Steve de Ridder's shot across goal was deflected just wide for a corner, and Lee Grant had to save well from Dawson as he got his head to it once again.

It remained goalless at the break, but the travelling fans were sent into hysterics 10 minutes into the second half.

Wallace's corner was headed back across goal by Chris McCann and David Edgar was allowed to nod home unmarked.

The lead lasted 11 minutes as Craig Davies headed home from Lee Chung-Yong's cross to restore parity.

The game was turned completely on its head when David Ngog fired past Grant on the turn with just eight minutes left on the clock.
