Bermudian striker seals Huddersfield victory
London: Bermudian striker Nahki Wells netted his first goal in almost two months as Huddersfield hit back to end Bolton’s eight-match unbeaten run with a 2-1 English Championship victory.
Wells, 24, came off the bench with 14 minutes remaining Sunday to guarantee the three points with his 10th goal of the season but first since he scored in a 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest Nov 1, as per reported.
Darren Pratley gave Bolton the lead after just 41 seconds, lashing the ball in off the underside of the crossbar from the edge of the area.
Jacob Butterfield levelled for the home side with a half-volley two minutes before the break.
Substitute Wells then won it with a low finish under goalkeeper on 85 minutes after racing on to a Jonathan Hogg through ball to inflict Bolton’s first defeat since Oct 31.
Huddersfield’s first victory in four matches helped them move up to 18th in the Championship table, while Bolton slipped one place to 15th.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
