Huddersfield's Josh Koroma scores twice in 4-0 victory over Bolton

Josh Koroma scored two goals to help Huddersfield get back to winning ways with an impressive 4-0 victory over struggling Bolton in League One.

Ben Wiles and Antony Evans also scored as the Terriers secured their fourth consecutive win against Bolton, a feat they had never achieved before.

Koroma opened the scoring for Michael Duff's team with a header from a great cross by Callum Marshall just before half-time.

Nathan Baxter made a crucial save to deny Evans from doubling the lead with a header in the 51st minute.

However, eight minutes later, Duff's team, who had not won any of their previous three matches in the league and cup, extended their lead to 2-0.

Koroma was brought down in the box by defender Chris Forino and then scored his fourth goal of the season from the penalty spot.

Bolton's struggles continued as Wiles scored with a left-footed shot in the 68th minute, sealing their third consecutive league defeat and a third consecutive goalless home game.

Baxter's mistake, passing the ball straight to Evans, allowed Huddersfield to score their fourth goal of the game nine minutes before the final whistle, moving them up to third place in the league table.
