Wigan moved off the bottom of the Championship table as Will Grigg’s late goal gave them victory over Wolves.

The striker latched onto a long ball with two minutes remaining and rounded Wolves goalkeeper Carl Ikeme.

Ex-Wolves striker Adam Le Fondre had put Wigan ahead early on, turning in Max Power’s cross from close range.

Prince Oniangue equalised for the Wanderers before the break with a low finish from 18 yards, before substitute Grigg’s cool finish won it for Wigan.

It’s a disappointing result for Wolves who have failed to build on wins against Newcastle United and Brentford, with consistency being a huge issue under Walter Zenga as they looked to force their way up the table.

After the defeat at the DW Stadium it leaves Wolves in eleventh, which is still only two points off the play-offs although the manner in how they let the game slip will infuriate many of the supporters.
