Reds snatch late win

01 November 2010 10:33
Liverpool moved out of the bottom three after earning a late 1-0 win at Bolton. A goalless draw had looked on the cards as both sides missed chances to go ahead, but the Reds won it in the 86th minute when Maxi Rodriguez poked home. It was harsh on Bolton, whose lengthy run without a win against the Reds continues, but they stay in the top half, while Roy Hodgson`s men register their first away win of the season. Liverpool started well and Fernando Torres headed over from a corner, before stabbing wide when his weaving run had put him through on goal. Bolton came into the game and Jose Reina palmed away Stuart Holden`s outstanding volleyed effort from 20 yards. But Liverpool snatched the points in the final five minutes with a goal of the highest quality. The ball was fed to Torres and he instinctively back-heeled to Rodriguez who poked powerfully past Jaaskelainen the sent the visiting fans into raptures.
