  1. 'An utter joy'

    Bolton 0-1 Middlesbrough

    Mark Drury
    BBC Radio Tees commentator

    This has, at times, been an utter joy to watch. You have to ask why on earth Boro are only 1-0 up. It is beyond me.

    They have to kill the game off.

  2. Bolton 0-1 Middlesbrough

    Stop me when this gets boring.

    Tommy Conway gets down the left and finds Aidan Morris on the edge of the Bolton area.

    This time Morris cannot get his sights right and blasts a shot wide.

    It is too easy for the visitors.

  3. 'Brilliant Bazunu'

    Keith Hill
    Former Bolton boss on BBC Radio Manchester

    That was superb play from Middlesbrough to make a chance from a Bolton corner.

    Thankfully, Gavin Bazunu is there to make a brilliant save.

  4. Bolton 0-1 Middlesbrough

    This is breathless stuff.

    Bolton win themselves a first corner of the game.

    They take it short and it is wasted but, worse than that they give the ball away.

    Middlesbrough break to the other end and Gavin Bazunu has to tip Amario Cozier-Duberry's shot wide of the post.

    I can't believe how easily we're getting into these deadly positions. We have to take those opportunities because I know Bolton could get us eventually.

    Football is a funny old game, and 1-0 is never enough.

  6. Bolton 0-1 Middlesbrough

    Aidan Morris slips in Riley McGree in space in the 18-yard area.

    The Australian skies his effort when well placed for Middlesbrough.

    Josh Sheehan plays in Theo Bair down the right.

    The Bolton striker bursts down the right of the Middlesbrough area and hammers a shot across the face of goal.

  8. Bolton 0-1 Middlesbrough

    Lewis Brunt has to slide in to prevent Callum Brittain crossing for a free Will Lankshear.

    Bolton are walking a tightrope at the back but have had two good chances of their own.

  9. 'Rodrigues shot needed venom'

    Bolton 0-1 Middlesbrough

    Jack Dearden
    BBC Radio Manchester commentator

    If only Ruben Rodrigues had hit that earlier shot with a bit more venom Bolton would've been 1-0 ahead. Now they're trailing.

    Ruben Rodrigues is desperate to make amends for his earlier miss.

    He drives a powerful effort from 20 yards and Radek Vitek is at full stretch to keep it out.

    If only Rodrigues had hit that earlier chance as well.

  11. Bolton 0-1 Middlesbrough

    There were 26 seconds between that chance for Bolton's Ruben Rodrigues and Middlesbrough switching to the other end and scoring.

    Could have been 1-0 to the home side, as it is they are 1-0 down.

    Football eh?

  12. 'Time to punish Bolton'

    Bolton 0-1 Middlesbrough

    Neil Maddison
    Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Radio Tees

    That's lovely play from Amarios Cozier-Duberry with his ball going past three or four players before it got to Aidan Morris, and it was the simplest goal he will ever score. You don't miss those.

    It's time to punish Bolton and get a few more. I can't believe how high a line they are playing.

    Thierry Gale of Bolton Wanderers battles with Callum Brittain MiddlesbroughGetty Images

    This game is being played at a ferocious pace.

    Thierry Gale bursts down the left for Bolton but overruns the ball out of play.

    That might just settle down the home side who have been chasing shadows so far.

  20. 'A brilliant start'

    Bolton 0-0 Middlesbrough

    Neil Maddison
    Former Middlesbrough midfielder on BBC Radio Tees

    Yes, we're playing a side that won promotion last season and we expected them to get the ball and have a proper go, but look at the amount of support for our boys in the away end.

    It's brilliant, and we've started really well.
