WATCH: Sean Maguire’s 13 minute brace

Sean Maguire has scored twice for Preston on his return from injury.

The Irish striker came off the bench against Bolton and bagged a quickfire brace to hand the visitors a 3-1 win.

The 23 year old had been sidelined for over four months, but showed few signs of rustiness after his 65th minute introduction, with the game locked at 1-1.

He showed his poacher’s instincts with two close range finishes in just 15 minutes, and has described today as his best in football.

You can’t write this stuff,” he told the club website after the game.

“To even be back involved with four thousand fans singing your name in a big game derby game that you have to win and to contribute to that and score two goals, it’s the best feeling I’ve had in football.

“Being out for four months and being frustrated a lot of the time coming in knowing you’re not going to be involved and in the matchday squad so to be back here today and to be involved was great.”
