Match Report: Bolton Wanderers 2-3 Bristol City
31.10.26, 18:00 Updated 01.11.26, 17:03
Bolton Wanderers could not make their comeback count, collapsing in the final ten minutes to lose 2-3 to Bristol City at the Toughsheet Community Stadium.
Steven Schumacher's side opened with some now-characteristic poor defending as Dom Ballard gave the away side the lead from close range. The goal woke Bolton up, and they were soon level through Josh Sheehan's excellent finish.
Wanderers advantage only grew into the second-half as Sam Dalby gave the hosts the lead, one they looked likely to keep hold off.
Two enforced defensive changes would turn the game as Sam Bell brought the Robins level with five minutes to go. This time it was Michael Skubala's who made their chances count, Scott Twine finishing a counter attack in added time to send the Bristolian's home with all three points.

A lifelong Bolton Wanderers fan, this club is the reason I began my journalism career. Since sitting in the stands as a kid over 20 years ago, I have gone on to work for the likes of the BBC and The Telegraph before everything led me back to here, to the football club I love.
