Stevenage 1-4 Bolton Wanderers

Must read

Bolton Wanderers continued their superb form by beating Stevenage 4-1 away in League One.

Wanderers, who have now won six and drawn one of their last eight games, were set on their way in the first-half by two goals in three minutes from Ricardo Santos and John McAtee.

Victor Adeboyejo and Dion Charles rounded off the win in the second-half, either side of Dan Kemp’s consolation.

Ricardo headed in a beautifully delivered corner in the 13th minute, arriving with pace at the back post, before McAtee bounced in a volley after a free-kick was only half-cleared to his feet on the edge of the box.

There had been positives for Stevenage in the first-half but again there was a lack of chances, though Carl Piergianni felt he could have had a penalty on the hour when he was barged to the floor.

That did not come and when Bolton broke quickly, a cross was not dealt with at the near post and Adeboyejo fired the ball into the roof of the net to make it 3-0.

Dan Kemp grabbed his first goal for Stevenage with 20 minutes to go and for a moment there was hope in the Lamex.

That was snuffed out with two minutes remaining when Dion Charles slid in to finish off a great night for Bolton.
