Bolton secured a much-needed point in their bid for survival in a 1-1 draw with Aston Villa.
Tamir Cohen's second-half strike cancelled out Ashley Young's opening period effort to hand the Trotters a valuable point in their quest for Premier League safety.
Bolton bossed the opening stages of the match, only for Villa to dominate proceedings and Martin O'Neill's side grabbed the opener after Young unintentionally scored his first goal in 18 games with a cross-cum shot which struck the post before going in.
The hosts came out of the blocks the better in the second-half and were duly rewarded when Cohen slotted home from close range from Andrew O'Brien's knock-down.
Gary Megson's side are now seven points ahead of third-bottom Middlesbrough, while Villa's hopes of a fifth-place finish took another stumble.
