Bolton Wanderers player ratings vs Stevenage: Ricardo Almeida Santos, Antoni Sarcevic and Alex Baptiste good

Matt Gilks - 7

A vocal presence like in the Salford game and commanded box well. Didn't have much else to do in first half except pick ball out of next. Made brilliant save in second half to dent Pett.

Alex Baptiste - 8

Got forward well to support attacks down the right hand side and slipped in Kioso which lead to opening goal. No nonsense clearances when needed.

Ricardo Almeida Santos - 8

Rarely put a foot wrong all game with key interceptions to deny Stevenage openings and didn't look fazed on the ball at all.

Ryan Delaney - 7

Another decent display from the defender both at the back and going forwards when supporting attacks. Booked in second half for foul on Pett.

Peter Kioso - 7

A threat down the right flank for Wanderers and combined well with Baptiste - put in the cross which lead to opening goal.

Antoni Sarcevic - 8

Unlucky not to score the opener after forcing a great save from Cumming before Doyle pounced. Good offensviely but also showed great defensive abilites.

Andrew Tutte - 7

Plenty of energy in the centre of the park to help disrupt the Boro's play and distributed the ball well throughout.

Gethin Jones - 8

Set up Crawford for Bolton's second goal to help cap off a great counterattack. Second game in succession on the left and was a threat on the counter, as well as solid defensively.

Ali Crawford - 7

Picked his spot well to score his first goal of the season with a cool finish - influence lessened as game wore on and was replaced.

Nathan Delfouneso - 6

Worked hard upfront but didn't have any chances himself. Replaced in the second half by Miller.

Eoin Doyle - 7

Clinical acrobatic finish to give Wanderers an early lead and played part in second.

Substitutes

Shaun Miller - 6

Played out on the left wing when he came on - led a counter attack which Doyle could have added a third from.

Lloyd Isgrove - 6

Assumed role on the right flank and did a sloid job.
