    • 90' It's all over. Bolton are through to the group stages of the UEFA Cup thanks to Nicolas Anelka's goal.
    • 84' Bozinovski tries a throw on back to his 'keeper but Anelka immediately siezes upon it, and the 'keeper does well in the end to clear for a corner.
    • 83 Bozinovski cynically hacks down Diouf, who is none too amused by the tackle.
    • 81' Anelka shows superb pace to latch onto Wilhelmsson's pass, and he does superbly well to win a corner.
    • 77' Pejcic surges forward again for Rabotnicki down the left flank, he gets his shot in, but it's always swerving away from goal.
    • 74' Lukmon is stetchered off injured. Bojinovski is on in his place.
    • 70' Rabotnicki break at speed... they release Pejcic who is storming down the left, but he blazes his shot high and wide!!! What a chance!
    • 68' It's floated in by Stelios towards Anelka...he gets up above Kovacevic and HE HEADS HOME!!!
    • 66 Anelka is on for Davies now.
    • 61' Andy O'Brien meets Guthrie's free-kick, but his header is way off target.
    • 60' Braaten is cynically taken down by Kovacevic on the edge of the area. He is immediately booked!
    • 54' Stelios is in behind the defence...he skips round the 'keeper, but the defender gets back in time to hack his shot clear!!!
    • 47' Vajs brings down Braaten on the right flank. The Macedonian is walking a tightrope after being booked in the first half. Guthrie swings it in to Davies at the back post, he rises well, but directs his header just wide!
    • 46' We're underway in the second half at the Reebok Stadium.
    • 45' Half-time at the Reebok. Not exactly the most high-quality game developing here.
    • 44' A mistake from Andy O'Brien lets in Trickovski, O'Brien comes sliding back in, but concedes a free-kick in a decent position...but it's driven straight into the wall.
    • 36' Guthrie goes for goal round the wall with a free-kick, but the 'keeper scrambles across his goal to fist clear at the near post!
    • 31' Braaten takes on Vajs and wins Bolton a corner. Guthrie whips it in, Davies wins the header, but it's hacked off the line by a defender!!
    • 27' Poor, careless ball smacked forward by Joey O'Brien. That runs straight through to the Rabotnicki 'keeper.
    • 22' Daniel Braaten surges forward for Bolton, he looks to find Guthrie at the back post, but the cross is a little too long. That was a good chance, as Rabotnicki were outnumbered there.
    • 17' Wilhelmsson charges into the area, and is tripped by Vajs! Appeals for a penalty, but the referee points for a free-kick just outside the box.
    • 8' Jaaskelainen is forced to tip behind a shot from Nedzipi from distance.
    • 1' Rabotnicki get the first half underway.
