JEFF SMITH

OUTSTANDING throughout the 90 minutes. His energy did not dip and he gave the Sunderland defence a torrid time, he grabbed his chance with both hands. He wasn't afraid to shoot.

MAGIC MOMENT

SMITH showed a few moments of skill that Joe Cole would have been proud of. Showboating does not come better than his double drag-back and later a fabulous trap from a 50-yard pass to get past Bjorklund.

MOAN OF THE MATCH

NOT for the first time Bolton let a game they were dominating slip through their fingers. Too many good chances missed, and a momentary lapse of concentration allowed for an equaliser.
