Bolton score three goals in nine first-half minutes against Port Vale to extend their winning run to six matches.

Zach Clough opened the scoring, spinning on to Derik Osede's pass before drilling a powerful effort past Jak Alnwick from the edge of the box.

Josh Vela then doubled the lead, sweeping home from close range after Alnwick had spilled Sammy Ameobi's cross-shot.

Full-back Lawrie Wilson then hammered a half-cleared corner past Alnwick for his first goal of the season, before Sam Hart headed in from close range to give Vale a consolation goal.
