Sierra Leone’s Amadou Bakayoko scored his third of the season to ensure Bolton Wanderers move up to 11th in the League One table – 12 points behind sixth-placed Oxford, who have played a game extra.
Bakayoko, 26, who joined League One side Bolton Wanderers on a two-year deal, took his goal well before top scorer Dapo Afolayan’s netted his 12th goal of the season to help his side to a 2-0 win at the University of Bolton Stadium on Tuesday.
It was a four straight win for the Wanderers after Ian Evatt side thrashed Sunderland 6-0 last Saturday that cost Lee Johnson his job.
