The Trotters will face either Oxford or Peterborough in the final.
Bolton secured their place in the League One play-off final despite being beaten by Barnsley at the Toughsheet Community Stadium as Ian Evatt’s men edged the Tykes 5-4 on aggregate.
Eoin Toal celebrates scoring Bolton’s second goal in their 3-2 League One play-off semi-final second leg defeat against Barnsley, which saw them reach the Wembley final 5-4 on aggregate . For Barnsley, missing out on the final completes a disappointing end to 2023-24 in which they failed to win any of their final six games of the regular season and sacked manager Neill Collins with one remaining, placing Martin Devaney in interim charge.
The visitors, having shown little threat up to that point, registered an attempt with Josh Earl nodding wide from a 28th-minute corner – and then a goal as Cosgrove battled to meet John McAtee’s delivery and headed in from close range.
