Bolton gains FA Cup semis for 1st time in 11 years
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}U.S. midfielder Stuart Holden helped Bolton defeat Birmingham 3-2 Saturday and reach the FA Cup semifinals for the first time in 11 years.
Bolton twice squandered the lead, but Lee Chung-yong secured the victory with a 90th-minute header after drifting into the penalty area to meet Kevin Davies' headed cross.
A fierce shot for a goal by Bolton's Johan Elmander's was offset by Cameron Jerome's score before halftime. Davies restored Bolton's lead with a penalty kick, but Kevin Phillips hooked the ball over goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen to even the score.
