'Clinical' - Doncaster Rovers boss Gary McSheffrey's Bolton Wanderers observation after loss

Wanderers inflicted defeat on Donny which leaves them six points from safety in League One

Doncaster Rovers boss Gary McSheffrey felt Bolton Wanderers put the two opportunites they got after the break away clinically as they inflicted defeat on his side.

Wanderers took the lead after the break thanks for Amadou Bakayoko slotting home after being found in the box by Jon Dadi Bodvarsson.

The hosts got back on level terms thanks to substitute Mipo Odubeko smashing past James Trafford to give Donny hope.

But Wanderers scored not long after when former Donny man Kieran Sadlier fired home a marvellous volley from Dapo Afolayan's pass to ensure the visitors took home the three points on Good Friday.

Wanderers are back in action on Easter Monday when they host Accrington Stanley at the University of Bolton Stadium.

The loss meanwhile leaves Donny in the drop zone and six points from safety with three games left of their season.

And Rovers boss McSheffrey felt Wanderers punished his side with what they managed to carve out after the break at the Eco-Power Stadium.

Speaking to the Doncaster Free Press, McSheffrey said: "Their two bits of end product in the second half they score from.

"They countered quite well and got in some good crossing positions, they fizzed a few across the six-yard box.

“But in terms of chances in the second half I think they really put their two away quite clinically.

We’ve created some good chances today and their goalkeeper has made two or three good saves but ultimately we should be scoing at least one or two more.

For five or six minutes we couldn’t get near them at the start of the game and then we couldn’t retain the first ball when we won it back.

“The next time I look at the clock it’s 24 minutes and I think we got a foothold back in it, we played well, we were on the front foot, we were moving the ball well.

“Before you know it it’s half time and I thought it was a great game of football.

“Second half we started a little bit sloppy again, there was some poor decision-making.

“But we react well from the disappointment of conceding and get ourselves back in it.

“Then we need to be better. When we get back in it we need to manage it better. You can’t concede in their next attack. The lads need to learn from that."
