Bolton's group rivals Aris Salonika kept their hopes of reaching the last 32 alive after coming from a goal down to earn a 1-1 draw against Braga in a tightly-contested encounter.

Braga went in front courtesy of Austrian midfielder Roland Linz's early strike but Aris defender Ronaldo levelled matters midway through the first half to earn a share of the spoils for Dusan Bajevic's side.

Austria Vienna's faint hopes of progressing are over after they suffered a last-minute 1-0 defeat to Panionios.
