Events

Match Events

0' The ball is rolling at The DW Stadium. Wigan Athletic FC are looking to make home advantage count against Hull City AFC.
5' It looks like no one’s ball. Hull City AFC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
10' George Johnston has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 16 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
15' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
20' The energy levels are beginning to show. Leam Richardson might look to freshen things up shortly.
25' Wigan Athletic FC is showing some good football. However, Wigan Athletic FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
27' What a strike from Mallik Wilks! The score is 0-1.
32' Goal! Mallik Wilks scores his 59 goal in 249 matches.
37' The 30-year-old Reece Burke has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
42' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
46' The Wigan Athletic FC bench stirs into life. Scott Wootton is withdrawn and Corey Whelan gets his opportunity.
49' Keane Lewis-Potter makes no mistake. The score reads 0-3 and Hull City AFC are in front.
53' What composure from Josh Magennis! The Northern Ireland international strokes it home. 0-4.
55' George Johnston has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 55.

63' Jordan Flores is replacing Alfie Jones for the Hull City AFC side.
64' Mallik Wilks makes no mistake. The score reads 0-5 and Hull City AFC are in front.
69' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Wigan Athletic FC and Hull City AFC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
71' The whistle greets Jamie Proctor as he departs to be replaced by Zach Clough.
76' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Hull City AFC that had 390 games and scored 441 goals.
80' Time for substitution for Hull City AFC. George Honeyman is replaced by Josh Emmanuel.
85' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
90' Canada international Alfie Jones has been a key figure this campaign — 1 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
