Latics Hold On For 80 Minutes Before Double Strike
Sinks Them
A much improved performance saw Latics easily hold
off the Premiership League Leaders for over 80 minutes
before a dubious William Gallas gave them the lead.
Whilst Latics chased what would have been a weel deserved
equaliser and a well taken Rosicky strike lucky bounced
in off the post to end the match 2-0.
The league Leaders were held for the best part of
this game and proved to evrybody that Wigan Athletic
can hold their own in this league.
Had Gallas' header, which looked very much like it
was offside (I'll have to see the replay), not broken
the deadlock Latics would have gone on to earn a deserved
draw.
Thomas Rosicky sealed victory in the 85th minute
with a bobbling strike that went in off the post.
