Evatt irked by ref decisions in draw

Cambridge Bolton

IAN EVATT was left to rue mistakes by officials and his goalkeeper.

The game remained goalless until the final 20 minutes when Bolton stopper Billy Crellin could only turn Jack Iredale’s cross into his own net before they equalised as captain Antoni Sarcevic (right) struck a precise finish into the bottom corner.

“Disappointing is an understatement, I think the lads deserved to win today,” Evatt said. “Against a team that are flying high, top of the league, scoring loads of goals, I can’t remember them having much of a chance.

“We’ve been let down by officials. Harry Brockbank’s (disallowed) goal, a wonderful goal, was legitimate and three yards onside.

“And then the mistake by Billy. I’ve just spoken to Billy. He’s a fantastic young goalie with lots of attributes and assets but we cannot afford him to keep making mistakes.

“Three points are at stake and my team deserved to win.” Mark Bonner felt his Cambridge side did not hit the heights of recent weeks, saying: “We got stretched out a little bit in the second half and they found the equaliser.

“It’s always disappointing when you go ahead to not hold onto that result, but it was quite a scrappy game.

“Their position in the league is false, they’ll end up higher than that with the threats that they’ve got.”
