That's that. A point apiece is probably the right result. City still haven't managed to win at the DW in the Premier League and in the end were happy with a point after Zabaleta was dismissed. Four points from the visit of Chelsea and City are a good return for Wigan.
- 94'
Figueroa is free in space on the left but his cross is pathetic. He may be tired but that's poor.
- 93'
Figueroa hammers in another ball, Scotland wins it but again no-one follows in to tap home. Wigan could easily have won this if they'd be a bit more adventurous.
- 92'
Melchiot drops another cross in but Wigan are lacking a bit of want inside the area. No-one attacks it.
- 90'
Four minutes added..
- 89'
Rodallega harries up the left, cuts in and delivers a sublime cross but no Wigan player was anywhere near it. If they were, they might be celebrating a winner about now.
- 88'
De Jong mops up on Gomez but then the Spaniard wins it back, N'Zogbia stands it up at the far post and as it breaks loose Rodallega stabs it goalwards but Given saves. Great stop, too.
- 87'
Another interesting but slightly aimless run from N'Zogbia ends in him losing possession inside the area.
- 85'
Santa Cruz stumbles after he won the ball and Scotland nearly sidesteps Lescott in the aftermath.
- 84'
Good chance for City as Melchiot again marauds down the right, he squares it to Gomez but his effort is tame and Given saves with his legs.
- 82'
Double change for City: Ireland and Santa Cruz come on for Tevez and SWP.
- 81'
SWP turns in a tired cross as Barry made a run into the area.
- 79'
Figueroa does well to slide in and poke the ball back to Kirkland as SWP went into the area.
- 78'
Melchiot does superbly well down the right and stands up a lovely cross but again, there's no communication as Scotland and Thomas collide when going for it.
- 77'
Bramble humps a long one forward for Scotland but it is too near Given.
- 76'
Rodallega cuts inside and shoots but Given claims it on the bounce.
- 75'
Tevez dashes after the ball as Wigan stroke it around the back, then he dives headfirst to try and get in the way of Kirkland's eventual clearance.
- 73'
Again Wigan have the ball in the net but Thomas was two yards offisde when he got N'Zogbia's ball.
- 72'
An old fashioned drop ball has just taken place after SWP and Diame got in a tangle. How refreshing.
- 71'
Scharner comes off and Jordi Gomez comes on.
- 70'
Tevez comes short for the free kick and whacks one towards goal but it was way off target.
- 69'
Thomas gives away a needless free kick on the touchline as Roberto Martinez prepares to make a change.
- 68'
Adebayor comes off and Kompany comes on.
- 67'
Looks like Adebayor is struggling for City. SWP has gone to right back for the time being.
