    FT: Wigan 1-0 Blackburn

    That just about does us for tonight.

    A memorable win for Wigan and a much more entertaining second half compared to a pretty tepid first!

    Blackburn's inconsistent form continues.

    We'll be back for some more Championship action tomorrow as Bristol City welcome Preston North End.

    But for now, thank you for joining us.

    All over too in our League One games this evening. Here are the headlines:

    • Charlton beat Exeter City 4-2, with late goals from Chuks Aneke and Jack Payne sealing the points for the Addicks before Sam Nombe's late consolation.
    • Four goals for Peterborough too as they beat Forest Green 4-1, with Jonson Clarke-Harris scoring the pick of the goals.
    • Big win for Bristol Rovers over MK Dons at the bottom of the table courtesy of Anthony Evans' penalty.

    In the Papa Johns Trophy, Colchester have drawn 1-1 with Gillingham, which means the U's have done enough to progress to the knockout stages.

    Wigan had to work hard for it, but you have to do that with every game in this league.

    It was a team effort, they really left their hearts out on the pitch and got the result they deserved.

    In the last 10-15 minutes, Blackburn threw the kitchen sink at them and they saw it off with a fantastic defensive display.

    Nathan Broadhead's second half goal gives them all three points against Blackburn.

    That's their first home win of the season and lifts them up to ninth in the Championship, two place below Blackburn who remain in seventh.

    It's going to be a nervous four minutes. Wigan will be looking to waste time at every moment of this game.

    Four minutes added on.

    Can Wigan hold on? Or are Blackburn going to score a late equaliser?

    It should be all over at The Valley now, where Chuks Aneke has poked in Charlton's third against Exeter. They lead the Grecians 3-1 with only minutes remaining.

    Ben Brereton Diaz is booked for dissent.

    Time running out for Blackburn to find an equaliser.

    Some frustration from the Blackburn supporters now.

    Their side look short of answers as time ticks down.

  11. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 83 mins

    Jason Kerr is called in once more for Wigan to spare the hosts' blushes as he denies Sam Gallagher.

    Wigan are sitting a bit too deep and inviting Blackburn on to them.

    That's never a good look with 10 minutes to go.

    They need some respite and an out-ball.

    What a ball into the box from Tyler Morton!

    Right to the feet of Scott Wharton but Wigan's Jason Kerr puts in a boot to stop him surely equalising for Blackburn.

  14. YELLOW CARDpublished at 79 mins

    Wigan 1-0 Blackburn

    James McClean goes into the book for remonstrating with the referee after bringing down Tyrhys Dolan.

    The Wigan man was less than impressed after Lewis Travis had brought down Charlie Wyke not long before.

  15. Deadlock broken in Milton Keynespublished at 21:21 British Summer Time 11 October 2022

    League One update

    Big goal towards the bottom of League One, with Bristol Rovers taking the lead at Milton Keynes Dons.

    The Dons, who are in the relegation zone, would have leapfrogged Rovers in the table with victory this evening but now have it all to do.

    Anthony Evans has blasted the Pirates in front from the penalty sport with just under 15 minutes remaining.

    A break in play as Max Power receives some treatment and walks to the sidelines.

    We get back under way soon after but that's taken some sting out of the game after a frantic 20 minutes or so.

    That is a collector's item. That's an opportunity you expect Ben Brereton Diaz to score.

    That's got to be a scare for Wigan. Blackburn have looked a bit shocked since conceding the goal but they're starting to have more possession.

    Wigan 1-0 Blackburn

    Tyrhys Dolan sends a ball into the Wigan box which is headed behind by Sam Gallagher as the two Blackburn substitutes link up.

    The ball falls into the path of an unmarked Ben Brereton Diaz who blasts a shot wide from inside the box.

    Tendayi Darikwa attempts to put Wigan two goals up.

    He latches onto a loose ball in the corner of the Blackburn box but he scuffs a low effort well wide of the mark.

    The goalscorer comes off, as planned.
