'Not understanding' - Scott Brown pinpoints what cost Fleetwood Town dear in Bolton Wanderers loss

Scott Brown felt his Fleetwood Town side were too sloppy in the closing stages of their late defeat to Bolton Wanderers and did not understand the game plan as it ended up costing them dearly.

Owen Beck, making his first League One start, saw a great opportunity go wide early on at Highbury Stadium. Despite looking the better side early on, Wanderers went behind as a Carlos Mendes Gomes strike from outside the box went into the top corner past James Trafford.

It proved to be the two crucial moments of the first half, as Wanderers failed to take their opportunity when it came and the Cod Army took theirs. Despite plenty of promising play, the Whites went in 1-0 down at the break.
