Ireland’s James McCarthy got his name on the scoresheet tonight against Swansea with what could be a vital goal.

By Adrian Collins

It’s only the second game he’s scored in this season in the Premier League, but this could be a crucial goal as his side look to stay in the top flight.

They had taken the lead just before the break through Espinoza, but that lead was cut short less than five minutes in to the second half when Angel Rangel scored for the visiting Swansea. Wigan responded to that in the best possible way.

He takes a beautiful touch and slots it home effortlessly, and the DW exploded with joy, reinstating the belief that the great escape could be on again.

Minutes later they conceded another however, so there will be be a tense finish to this game as they fight for their survival.
