Sammy Ameobi leads Bolton’s fightback vs. Preston

Sammy Ameobi struck to help Bolton Wanderers secure a 2-2 draw against hosts Preston North End in Saturday’s English Championship encounter.

Coming from a shocking 3-0 home defeat at the hand of Sheffield United last week, only a positive result would do for Phil Parkinson's men but early goals from Callum Robinson and Alan Browne [11th and 16th minutes respectively] placed them on the verge of a second successive loss.

Ameobi, playing in his fourth league game this campaign, halved the deficit with his first goal of 2018-19 in the 38th minute before Pawel Olkowski netted the equaliser two minutes later.
