Wigan edge to first win of the season with victory over Crawley
Wigan finally got their Sky Bet League One campaign up and running thanks to a nervy 1-0 victory against Crawley at the Brick Community Stadium.Thelo Aasgaard provided the only goal on the half-hour mark, with his header from Luke Chambers’ left-wing cross going in off Town defender Joy Mukena.But the newly-promoted Reds never gave up the ghost, dominating for large parts of the second period but proving unable to force an equaliser.Silko Thomas had already found the net for Wigan before the opening goal, only for it to be ruled out for offside and a foul.And it was the on-loan Leicester man who glided through the visiting defence at the beginning of the second half, only to be denied by goalkeeper Joe Wollacott.At the other end, Sam Tickle made two good saves to deny Ade Adeyemo, with Chambers having to hack the ball away from deep inside his six-yard box.Wigan almost found a second goal at the end, only for Joe Hugill to fire over the top from a good position.
