Wigan Athletic v Sheffield Wednesday LIVE

DM on half-time message

There was a period where they didn’t have a cross in our box second half. We were on the front foot and took the game to them. We didn’t step off.

They’ve got some good quality players. Credit to our players. We move on.

He played in two different roles tonight and he caused them problems. It was so difficult for them to pick him up.

That’s the versatility with him and Dennis, Jaden who did well. They were spot on with what they had to do today.

What we’re trying to do with the players is to have the adapting and playing different roles.

DM on Pato’s goal

I’m pleased for him and he played the role well. It’s a credit to him. There was a good sidekick in Lee Gregory and a couple of good saves.

I don’t want to single people out. It was such a consistent approach tonight.

DM on the performance

It was the performance and direction I wanted it to go. The team is getting stronger and fitter and it was a good performance.

Four points from two tough away games is important.

Keep it locked for the latest on all sorts..

FT: A breathless end to proceedings here at the DW..

..and Wednesday take three points.

We’ll be speaking with Darren Moore shortly. Stay tuned for all he has to tell us on Barry Bannan’s absence, Sam Hutchinson’s injury and a hard-fought three points.

88’ - WHAT A SAVE

He’s done it again, BPF. This is breathless, breathless stuff as Wigan go in search of an equaliser.

83’ - Right then..

Wyke scores from the spot. Wednesday under pressure now. Shodipo on for Brown.

Callum Lang swung wide from a free-kick in a good spot.
