A Phil Babb goal in the 80th minute gave Bolton a point and denied Howard Wilkinson’s first win as Sunderland Manager.
The game was not the best, as it showed why both teams are fighting at the bottom end of the table.
Michael Gray did give Sunderland the lead at the end of the first half with a poor header out by Ivan Campo and Gray finished it well with a thumping shot, which beat the Bolton keeper.
Bolton got their equaliser through Phil Babb where he headed the ball into his own net but Bolton did deserve the goal for there possession.
American stay Claudio Reyna was stretchered off after an innocuous looking challenge on Youri Djorkaeff.
Teams:
Bolton: Jaaskelainen, Mendy, N'Gotty, Whitlow, Gardner, Frandsen, Campo, Nolan, Farrelly, Djorkaeff, Ricketts. Subs: Poole, Pedersen, Okocha, Dean Holdsworth, Barness.
Sunderland: Myhre, Wright, Babb, Craddock, McCartney, Kilbane, Reyna, McCann, Gray, Phillips, Bellion. Subs: Macho, Flo, Thirlwell, Bjorklund, Piper.
Referee: E Wolstenholme (Lancashire).
