Really good spell for Rochdale, they are keeping Stoke honest. Marko Arnautovic is tackled on the right and just gives up on it. His body language is that of an international who doesn't fancy this.

"What a great ball which puts him through. But he should have scored... his pace got him in between the two central defenders. That's the best chance of the game because Bojan's goal wasn't a chance!"

Rochdale waste a free-kick in a dangerous area, easily held by Jack Butland. But what a chance! Great pass by youngster Callum Camps to release Matt Done, he's in between the centre-halves and slides it inches wide of the post...

"What does Mark Hughes expect? He's away at a League One side. He'll be taking his coat off next."

BBC Sport's Gary Rose at Spotland: "Bojan may have been applauded by the home fans after his brilliant opener, but he quickly became the subject of their jeers.

"The sight of the diminutive forward arguing with towering Peter Vincenti after a crunching challenge on Victor Moses resulted in boos being aimed in his direction, and then a tumble in the area prompted chants of 'cheat, cheat, cheat'.

"His subsequent substitution saw one or two Rochdale fans lean near the tunnel entrance to wave goodbye as he walked past them, while others cheered ironically but in truth, they will be relieved to see the back of him."

That's better from Jack Butland as Rochdale threaten again. Stephen Dawson makes a trademark break from midfield, beats one man and Butland has to be sprightly to make a challenge. Dawson clatters into a cameraman.

Seconds later Mark Hughes is angry again, he clatters the ball out of his technical area and then turns and engages with the home fans. It's all getting a bit heated...

"That was good movement and he gets across his marker, but he just scuffs it."

Dodgy keeper! Jack Butland doesn't convince, coming for a cross and flapping horribly, spooning it out for a corner. That's' got the home fans excited.

From the corner, it scuffs through to Rhys Bennett and his shot is sliced wide. Chance.

That's the end of Bojan's night, and I can't lie to you, I'm disappointed.

Bojan is replaced by Stephen Ireland.

Interesting. The Stoke physio makes the 'substitution' hand signal but Bojan waves to say no, he'll be OK. Stephen Ireland is now warming up. We'll see who wins that battle.

Class goal, a booking, and now an injury? Marko Arnautovic sends Bojan in behind the defence and he clatters to the floor. No challenge, he has hurt himself here. He's holding his knee. He looks concerned.

"I think it was a good tackle, but the problem is Victor Moses is lying on the ground injured. If the referee had stopped play, rather than doing the right thing and letting play go on, it might have avoided the handbags which followed. It was an earthy tackle for sure, but Stoke aren't angels are they?"

Despite referee Martin Atkinson waving that tackle on, he has now booked Peter Vincenti for his part in the following melee. The ref books Bojan too.

I've seen a replay and the tackle was high, Vincenti caught Victor Moses on the ankle.

Peter Vincenti goes in hard on Victor Moses, very hard, but referee Martin Atkinson waves it on. Mark Hughes is livid, off the bench, and when Vincenti gets the ball back he is clattered by Glenn Whelan.

It kicks off, Bojan is in the thick of it, backed up by Ryan Shawcross. Calm it down...

"Mark Hughes' barmy army!" is the chant at Spotland as the away end enjoy themselves. Tony Pulis took Stoke to the Cup final in 2011, could Sparky repeat the feat?

Rob Sunbury: When Chelsea were desperate they would occasionally throw Micky Droy forward to partner Peter Osgood! Those were the days.

"Rochdale have forced Stoke to defend quite deep because of their pace going forward."

Dale continue to impress, Matt Done almost wriggling away from Ryan Shawcross and into the box but Shawcross just about does enough.

"Rochdale's Joe Rafferty is a former Liverpool Under-18s captain. If these Championship and League One clubs scout the young players at City, United and Liverpool etc, they will get some bargains because there is nowhere else for those lads to go."

If you haven't seen it yet, you can watch Bojan's strike now by using the highlights tab at the top of the page. If you have seen it, surely you want to watch it again?

It's that good...
