Newcastle 1 Bolton 1: Hot-shot Sturridge fires again to deny 10-man Magpies

  The jury may still be out on Sturridge. Certainly Manchester City were wary of his talents and neither was he then the expected success at Chelsea.No such problem at Bolton, where meat pies and mushy peas maybe the staple diet, but with a manager who knows footballing cordon bleu when he sees it.Sturridge, sent by Chelsea on loan during last month's transfer window, scored his fourth goal in as many games to rescue a point and end a run of six successive away defeats for Bolton. Clear head: Newcastle United's Kevin Nolan scores the opening goalMATCH STATSNewcastle (4-4-2): Harper; Simpson, Williamson, Coloccini, Jose Enrique; R Taylor, Tiote, Nolan, Gutierrez (S Taylor 66min); Best (Kuqi 90), Lovenkrands (Ranger 67). Subs (not used): Krul, Campbell, Perch, Ferguson. Sent off: R Taylor (54min). Bolton (4-4-2): Jaaskelainen; Alonso, Wheater, Cahill, Robinson; Elmander, Muamba (M Davies 79), Holden, Petrov (Taylor 85); K Davies, Sturridge. Subs (not used): Bogdan, Steinsson, Klasnic, Moreno, Lee. Booked: Wheater, Alonso. Referee: C Foy (Merseyside).His 38th-minute strike always seemed on the cards after the 21-year-old had missed the target with three efforts. His finish after Johan Eelmander had provided the pass was crisp and accurate.Bolton's cause was helped when Ryan Taylor was shown a straight red card for a reckless high tackle on Elmander early in the second half. It was Sturridge's pace and energy that impressed, giving full-back Jose Enrique an uncomfortable afternoon. Last season Owen Coyle's shrewd loan acquisition of Jack Wilshere proved of triple benefit - to the player; Bolton and Arsenal. Sturridge looks to be following in his footsteps.Coyle said: 'Jack Wilshere did it for us on loan from Arsenal and took his game to another level. I'm sure Daniel can do the same. That is  why I brought him to the club, because he's special.'There's no shame in not being in the Arsenal or Chelsea side on a regular basis. For me, it's a win-win situation. Chelsea get a better player back and we get a quality player who improves us On fire: Sturridge celebrates after extending his scoring streak'Daniel scored a terrific goal. He can finish with his left or right foot, score headed goals and has pace to burn.'The goal spoiled a personal celebration for Kevin Nolan who notched the 50th goal of his career against his former club. The Newcastle skipper met a Cheik Tiote cross with a superb, low header to give Newcastle a 13th-minute lead. It was a Newcastle high point on an afternoon which started badly when Joey Barton damaged his thigh in the warm-up and got worse with Taylor's dismissal.Nile Ranger headed home in added time but the goal was chalked out for offside.  Tiote signs Newcastle deal until 2017 to snub Chelsea and Arsenal interestBolton boss Coyle hopeful of keeping out-of-contract striker Elmander NEWCASTLE UNITED FC
