Wigan manager Warren Joyce said:

"The first goal particularly, it's not like it's good play, it's just a straight long ball down the middle.

"It's the worst possible start you could get. The second goal was equally poor and then you've got a mountain to climb against a good side.

"You're under no illusions before the game starts that it's going to be a tough game, but we've given them a two-goal lead.

"It's basics even if you're in under-14 football - a straight ball goes down the middle after 90 seconds and they don't deal with it, two experienced players, you're 1-0 down and you've got a mountain to climb."
