Half-Time Report: Marc-Antoine Fortune strikes late for Wigan Athletic

Marc-Antoine Fortune's late goal gives Wigan Athletic a 2-1 advantage going into the break of their Championship clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Marc-Antoine Fortune's late goal has given Wigan Athletic a 1-2 lead going into the break of their Championship clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers this afternoon.

Wigan's Shaun Maloney rattled the Wolves upright in the opening minutes but he had already been penalised for using his arm to bring the ball down.

Good work from Wolves' Bakary Sako saw him cut back to Matt Doherty from the byline, but the full-back's first-time effort was blocked.

The home side eventually went in front through David Edwards, who nodded home Rajiv van la Parra's angled ball from the edge of the area.

The goal might have discouraged Wigan given their poor start to the season, but James Perch rose highest to head in an immediate equaliser for the Latics.

Fortune then added a second for the visitors to give his side a great chance of getting all three points going into half time.
