Not long left now and what a performance from Bolton - the fourth official has signalled two extra minutes.

It's emptying out at the Stadium of Light and the game seems to have completely died now.

Cisse takes a shot from 25 yards out but its high and wide, very poor and you're not going to score like that.

Well Sunderland do look like a beaten team now, I really can't see Bolton losing.

Bardsley sends a ball forward to Cisse but it's not good enough, Cisse looks back at Bardsley in disgust which isn't really what you want your players doing if you're Roy Keane.

All the sting has gone from this game now, Bolton just looking organised and restricting Sunderland to half chances without wanting to get forward.

Some fantastic work from Kevin Davies puts Elmander through but his shot goes just inches wide of Craig Gordon's post.

Chimbonda puts in a dangerous looking cross into the Bolton penalty area but it's just too long and runs out for a goal kick.

The double substitution doesn't seem to have helped Sunderland much and Bolton are well in control, they've taken their foot of the gas a bit now and seem happy with a 3 goal lead.

Chance for Elmander to get his hat trick but his shot is off target, he's had a brilliant game today Elmander and is starting to fit into this Bolton side after a turbulent start.

Sunderland come forward through Malbranque but Elmander of all people is back to defend for Bolton.

I can't see any way back for Sunderland now, they look thoroughly deflated now and seem to have no ideas.

Brilliant defending from Nosworthy to take the ball off Gardner at the crucial moment.

Bolton have just had two corners in quick succession but Collins manages to clear for Sunderland.

McCann takes a wicked shot from 25 yards out but Gordon makes an even better save in the Sunderland goal.

Bolton looking confident at the moment and I can see them extending their lead rather than Sunderland getting back into it.

Andy Reid was in a great position to cross but he fluffs it and Bolton have a goal kick.

Two minutes of stoppage time added on, Cisse just played in a great ball looking for Jones but it missed his head by about an inch, could easily have been 2-3.

Bolton take a long free kick looking for Kevin Davies but Sunderland clear.

Bolton coming forward again, just looking to retain the ball and keep this lead until half time. It really has been a good performance from Megson's men so far and Roy Keane will have some harsh words for his players at half time.

Sunderland look a bit shell shocked now, they've had plenty of possesion but haven't done anything with it.

Mix up between Samuel and Jaaskelainen nearly lets Malbranque in to nick a Sunderland equaliser, poor defending and Bolton are lucky to get away with that.

Good link up play from Cisse and Jones for Sunderland but Cisse's shot goes wide, a lot of pace in this Sunderland side and Bolton will have to watch them on the break.

All Bolton at the moment, for some reason Sunderland keep trying to pass the ball around in defence and Bolton keep robbing them, it's a dangerous way to play.

Muamba puts Elmander through, Elmander goes round Gordon but hits his shot over the bar from a tight angle, you think at £11million he should probably score from there.

Muamba blasts well over for Bolton, frankly a ridiculous effort, shooting is not this boys strong point.

Goal disallowed for Sunderland, Jones heads onto the Bolton cross bar and the ball falls to Cisse but the assistant had already flagged for something, not sure whether it was a foul or offside and it's a bizarre decision.

Looks like Gary Megson agrees with me, theres a break in play and the Bolton boss is having a word with the fourth official.

Elmander dumped to the floor with Bolton on the break but referee Mr Foy waves play on, looked a foul to me but then again I'm no referee.

Another Sunderland corner, Malbranque takes but it's hit too long and Bolton win a throw in deep in their own half.

Bolton's midfield running the show at the moment, Nolan and Muamba have really started to work together well over the last few weeks and Bolton look a good side.

Sunderland win their first corner, Malbranque takes but O'Brien clears for Bolton.

Cracking opening period at the Stadium of Light, you get the feeling that after that quick turn around Sunderland might fall apart but there's plenty of time to go.

Elmader fouled while Bolton were on the break, from the free kick Davies gets on the end of it but his flick goes halmlessly through to Gordon in the Sundrland goal.

Bolton have reacted quite well to that goal and have tried to get on the attack straight away but Whitehead managed to take the ball off Elmander.

Bolton corner but Nosworthy clears for Sunderland, they break through Malbranque but Bolton get back quick enough.

Jones hits a shot from range but Jaaskelainen saves comfortably, Jones looks to be Sunderland's danger man and he's just taken an overhead kick shot but he missed the ball completely.

Kenwyne Jones has just rifled a dangerous looking cross into the Bolton penalty area but Taylor clears for Bolton.

Very tentative start from Sunderland, they're looking to play balls for Cisse and Jones to run onto but so far Bolton are dealing with it well.

Bolton on top in the early stages, they look well organised defensively and Sunderland are getting no time on the ball at the moment.

McCann takes this corner, Davies gets a head to it but it goes behind for a goal kick.

Bolton corner after Samuel's cross is cleared. Taylor takes and wins another corner.
