Bolton Wanderers failed to make their pressure count, as a late collapse saw them ripped apart by Millwall at The Den.

The 4-0 loss means that the Whites have now lost three Championship games in a row, before the side host's West Ham United on Tuesday night.

Steven Schumacher thought there was lot's of good moments in Bolton's performance, but the loss of Lewis Brunt to injury, when Wanderers had used all five substitutes, was a key component into the three-goal collapse in the final ten minutes.
