Championship results: Middlesbrough beat Bolton to peg back leaders Leeds while Reading lose to Norwich
George Saville and Britt Assombalonga saw off Bolton at the Riverside for second-placed Middlesbrough
MIDDLESBROUGH closed back to within a point of Sky Bet Championship leaders Leeds with victory over Bolton.
Boro were the superior side but only had George Saville's 34th-minute goal to show for it at the Riverside until Britt Assombalonga popped up with a late second to seal a 2-0 win.
At the other end of the table, two goals in three minutes gave QPR a third win in their last four league matches as they defeated Millwall 2-0.
After losing their first four Championship games, Rangers have turned their form around impressively.
They had a helping hand this time from Ben Amos, who was arguably culpable for both goals as Massimo Luongo headed in a 30th-minute opener before Ebere Eze bundled a shot beyond the Millwall keeper.
Reading suffered a fourth home defeat of the season, losing 2-1 to Norwich.
Teemu Pukki's fifth goal of the campaign in the 14th minute put the Canaries ahead. Jon Dadi Bodvarsson levelled things in the 72nd minute but Norwich went straight down the other end where Mario Vrancic produced a neat finish.
Nottingham Forest moved above Sheffield Wednesday on goal difference after a 2-1 victory over the Owls at the City Ground.
