Manchester City duo Jamie Trafford and Luke Mbete have booked a date at Wembley after Bolton Wanderers clinched a spot in the Papa John's Trophy final.

Bolton will be returning to Wembley for the first time in 12 years on April 2 - as they look to avenge the infamous 5-0 loss to Stoke City - after defeating Accrington Stanley 2-0 in a hotly contested semi-final on Wednesday.

Stanley went down to 10 men after just 22 minutes when Sean McConville was dismissed for catching Conor Bradley on his knee with his studs.

City's highly-rated centre-back Mbete started the game as did goalkeeping prodigy Trafford and he had an eventful afternoon.
