  • Live Commentary

    Time:90'
    • Sporting
    • Bolton Wanderers
    • 90+2 And that is, mercifully, the final whistle. Bolton out, although they probably wanted that, and Sporting through.
    • 90' Almost a superb piece of play by Sporting but the drive cross misses Liedson and it put behind.
    • 88' Guthrie enters the book.
    • 87' Joao Moutinho on the ball, wriggles past one man and has a crack and it's a great tip over by Al-Habsi! Corner, which Meite scrambles away.
    • 85' Pereirinha on the right, skips past the defender, Samuel out of position, he cuts in and sends a rising curler into the top left. Sporting lead 2-1 overall.
    • 83' Poor corner but Bolton can't clear it, Anderson picks it up and tries an ill-advised - and inaccurate - backheel that allows Bolton to get it away.
    • 82' Woolfe with a left wing run and cross but Stelios can't reach it... Sporting now with a chance to clear, Izmailove over the top for Liedson who pressurises Meite and wins a corner.
    • 80' Romagnoli on the right, hits the byline and cuts the ball back AND LIEDSON UNMARKED TO FINISH BUT BLOCKED BY AL-HASBI! Either side of him and that was in.
    • 78' Corner to Sporting on the left... sent far too deep, but not fully cleared... ball comes in again but Tonel with a foul and a free-kick to Bolton.
    • 76' BOLTON SUB: Woolfe on for his debut, Helguson - who was pretty much done nothing of note tonight - off.
    • 75' Terrible attempt at a long-range effort from Abel, he was found free on the edge of the box from a set-piece but sent it well over.
    • 73' Samuel breaks forward on the left and does well to win a corner off Moutinho, which Guthrie takes... but easy for Rui Patricio.
    • 71' BOLTON SUB: Braaten on for Teymourian.
    • 70' Joao Moutinho on the ball, running at the Bolton defence and sends a superb drive to the far post which Al-Habsi just tips behind for a corner! The corner is cleared but second ball comes in from the left and Liedson rises with the far post header but well held by Al-Habsi.
    • 69' Vaz Te races to take a long ball and the keeper slides out to gather, almost sliding out of the area but cleverly changing his bodyshape to ensure only his legs come outside.
    • 67' Teymourian is down after getting the ball and maybe some dirt in his eye...
    • 66' SPORTING SUB: Tiu on for Vuckevic.
    • 65' Poor corner though, far too deep and out for a throw.
    • 64' The ball is sent in long by Bolton, Vaz Te flies in at the far post but headed behind for a corner by Tonel.
    • 61' Cross comes in to the Bolton box and Al-Habsi flaps at it but the ball skews wide for a goal kick! Almost a total howler from the Omani.
    • 59' Low ball driven into the box for Liedson who goes down after a pull from Hunt and hacked away and the whistle has gon! But it's for offside, not a penalty. Escape for Bolton.
    • 57' Mistake from Samuel gives Sporting a chance, the shot is blocked for a corner though, which is then wasted.
    • 56' An arm from Helguson catches a Sporting player, who over-reacts but stops once he realises there was no intent and that Helguson is apologetic.
    • 55' Romagnoli on the right cuts inside and finds Liedson who has a crack but straight at Al-Habsi.
    • 52' This match is adopting a pattern of hit-and-hope. Neither side can be overly bothered, Sporting keen to avoid conceding, Bolton happy to wait for an opening.
    • 50' Fairly low-key start to this second half, both sides content with what's going on right now, Bolton clearly not prioritising this match so happy to sit back and break.
    • 48' Late from Teymourian who is booked.
    • 46' Second half underway!
    • 45+1 Half-time, goalless on the right, 1-1 on aggregate and as it stands Sporting lead on away goals.
    • 45' Free-kick on the edge of the Bolton box, right hand side, Romagnoli to take... he swings it in deep but Meite heads away, throw in to Sporting.
    • 43' Hunt with a mistake to let Romagnoli in, he can't get back quickly enough and Romagnoli lets rip bit is falling as he hits it so Al-Habsi can get down to save.
    • 42' Liedson now gets in the area and has a pop but blocked...
    • 40' Long range effort from Liedson to cap off a decent move but he sends it wildly over and wide.
    • 38' Free kick to Bolton swung in by Guthrie again, cleared again.
    • 37' Moutinho booked for cynically bringing down Vaz Te while he was getting away. Bolton have so far taken the sting out of this contest, but they need to score!
    • 32' Romagnoli on the left, cutting inside and has space to shoot but he drags it well-wide, poor effort.
    • 30' Ball over from Pereirinha and the header from Vuckevic is skewed wide but IZMAILOV FLIES IN UNMARKED AT THE NEAR POST BUT HE FIRES OVER!! Great chance. Bolton think there was a foul in there as Hunt and Liedson went to ground, lucky escape either way!
    • 28' Bolton come forward again and a low driven cross from Hunt on the overlap but cleared by Sporting. An even start, if anything Bolton the more consistently dangerous.
    • 27' Free-kick to Bolton on the left, Guthrie to swing it in... good centre which Rui Patricio struggles to punch clear but luckily for Sporting there's no-one there to pounce.
    • 26' Bolton have to stay calm under two bouts of pressure, first Abel then Vuckevic with chances to get balls into the area.
    • 24' Bolton break now but Vaz Te with the foul just as he got onto the end of the ball from Hunt.
    • 22' Abel gets forward from right back, gets past Samuel easily enough then crosses but too close to Al-Habsi.
    • 21' Corner to Sporting which Romagnoli will take... there's a delay but finally he steps up... cleared easily enough though.
    • 20' Great play by Bolton, Stelios and Cahill combining with some neat one-touch play near their own corner flag to set Hunt away, he looks long but Sporting gobble it up. Not started badly at all, Bolton.
    • 18' Guthrie pings the corner in and MEITE RISES but his header is blocked and Sporting survive!
    • 18' Stelios takes it short, back to Guthrie who tries a low drive which Patricio touches behind for a corner!
    • 17' Romagnoli on the ball, running at the heart of Bolton but he drags the shot... Bolton counter and win a corner on the left.
    • 16' Meite concedes a throw under pressure from Liedson, he keeps getting dragged wide which makes me thnk that Samuel is getting caught out of position.
    • 14' Stelios with a run into space on the left, cuts inside, then back out and swings the cross in, dangerous vall but Anderson heads clear and VAZ TE WITH THE SHOT but it hits Stelios en route and goes well wide!
    • 12' Meite gets the ball caught between his feet after being played into trouble by Samuel, Vuckevic is in now and bursts towards goal but he can only fire into the side netting! Sloppy play by Bolton.
    • 9' It's Bolton pressing for the goal early in, as Hunt takes a throw in from the right wing after an attempted cross was put out... Sporting break though, Bruno fouls Andranik Teymourian so Bolton survive with a free kick.
    • 8' Romagnoli sticks a leg out to bring down Stelios, Hunt to pump it long into the box and Cahil chests it down into space but no-one is there to pounce!
    • 7' Vaz Te takes a long ball on his chest, or is that his arm, he turns the defender and has no support so fires one in on goal but inches wide with Rui Patricio beaten! Great play by the Portuguese forward!
    • 5' Bolton with a chance to break but the ball is played too heavy for Vaz Te and zips out for a throw on the Bolton left wing.
    • 3' The corner is cleared but second ball knocked back in although the flag is up as Moutinho fires at Al-Habsi.
    • 2' Early chance for Sporting as Vuckevic lines up a free-kick from the edge of the box... and he sends it curling towards the top left but palmed behind for a corner by Al-Habsi!
