Bolton Wanderers fight back from a goal down to knock Swansea City out of the FA Cup.

Bolton Wanderers fought back from a one-goal deficit to advance through to round five of the FA Cup at the expense of Swansea City this afternoon.

Visiting Swansea dominated the opening half at the Reebok Stadium and they eventually broke the deadlock after 43 minutes. Strike duo Luke Moore and Leroy Lita linked for the former to beat Adam Bogdan in goal from close range.

However, former Swansea midfielder Darren Pratley ensured that Wanderers would go into the break on level terms when he converted a cross from Martin Petrov.

Bulgarian Petrov also played a part in the winning goal, which came in the 56th minute. Swansea goalkeeper Gerhard Tremmel failed to deal with the winger's cross and Chris Eagles was on hand to turn in the rebound.

Swansea pressed for an equaliser to force a replay but they were unable to breach Bogdan's net for a second time.
