Samba: Scored equaliser

FULL-TIME: Blackburn deservedly win the game thanks to second-half strikes by Samba and Roberts. Roberts created problems with his physical presence and deserved his winning goal to keep Bolton in deep relegation trouble.

90 (+3) mins - Derbyshire on: Derbyshire comes on for Santa Cruz.

90 mins - Three minutes of injury time:

90 mins - GOAL!!!!! Roberts scores to put Blackburn in front with a brilliant individual goal. After gathering the ball in his own half, he rides several challenges to get in a goal-shooting position. His shot is slightly deflected by the in-coming Joey O'Brien past Jaaskelainen, who still gets a hand to the shot but can not keep it out.

88 mins - Samba booked: Samba is booked for a late challenge on Wilhelmsson.

87 mins - O'Brien defends again: Roberts and O'Brien tussle over a ball and the defender does brilliantly to get his leg in and deflect Roberts' point-blank shot over the bar. Bolton clear the corner.

85 mins - Good defending: Andy O'Brien does well to head the ball away as Santa Cruz comes in to meet a cross.

83 mins - Bentley free-kick: Roberts is causing problems to Bolton with his physical presence. He wins a free-kick for Blackburn in a dangerous position. Bentley takes the kick which looks like it is going in the bottom corner but Jaaskelainen does very well to get down and finger-tip the ball around the post. Bolton clear the subsequent corner.

82 mins - Dunn shot: Dunn hits a shot from outside the box wide of Jaaskelainen's right post. His shot came after good build-up play by Blackburn.

78 mins - Roberts cross: Roberts hits a great ball across the Bolton box which everyone misses, including Santa Cruz on the far post.

76 mins - McCarthy subbed: Roberts comes on for the hard-working McCarthy.

74 mins - Nolan shot: Good build-up play Bolton leads to Nolan receiving the ball 30 yards out in front of goal but he puts his shot well wide.

72 mins - Ooijer substituted: Khizanishvili comes on for Ooijer for Blackburn.

70 mins - Pedersen chance: McCarthy finds Pedersen in the box, who puts his shot through the legs of Andy O'Brien but his effort goes inches wide of the post. Unlucky.

62 mins - Cohen booked and subbed: Cohen is booked for a challenge and is then subbed for Wilhelmsson.

59 mins - Great defending: Santa Cruz plays a great dummy and the ball falls to Pedersen. He lines up a shot which Joey O'Brien does very well to get across to block.

58 mins - Dunn lucky: Bolton win a throw-in which Nolan takes and Davies heads back to him. He crosses and Dunn heads behind but the ball could easily have gone in his own net. Blackburn clear the corner.

56 mins - McCann substitution: McCann comes on for Campo who does not look pleased to come off.

53 mins - GOAL!!!!! Blackburn equalise thanks to a Samba header. Good work wins them a corner which Bentley takes. The ball comes to Samba on the fall-post and he scuffs his header but it still bounces over the head of Guthrie on the line into the goal. The keeper Jaaskelainen looks to be at fault because he comes for the ball and misses.

50 mins - Samba shot: Samba shoots from 40 yards out but his ambitious effort goes well wide.

47 mins - Santa Cruz effort: Pedersen's cross finds Santa Cruz in the box and his right-footed shot is well-saved by Jaaskelainen, who knocks the ball out for a throw-in. Bolton then clear the throw-in.

45 mins - Santa Cruz chance: Santa Cruz receives the ball in the Bolton box in acres of space but his shot is more of a cross and Bolton get the ball away.

45 mins - Re-start: Bolton get the second-half underway.

HALF-TIME: Bolton go in at half-time one up thanks to Nolan's sublime goal. His effort was the only real chance for the home-side so far as Bolton enjoyed most of the possession but lacked the invention in front of goal to trouble Friedel. Blackburn are still in this game and could easily come back if they can create more chances.

45 mins - Injury time: One minute of injury time is announced.

44 mins - Santa Cruz chance: Campo concedes a free-kick and picks up a yellow card. Blackburn take and Santa Cruz heads just over.

43 mins - GOAL!!!!! Nolan scores a fantastic goal to put Bolton in front. Friedal punches out a free-kick which Joey O'Brien then puts back in the box. The ball falls to Nolan at the far post with his back to goal and he volleys it in. Fantastic technique!
