“OWER THE MOON!”
This waz a
scrappy performance under a full moon, which hovered aboot above the groond,
and Toon fans were definatly ‘ower the moon’ with this result, which takes us
back to the top of the table by 1 point from Brighton, but more importantleee,
NINE points above Reading in 3rd place (and with a goal difference
of plus 27!)
The big
breakthrough came in the 26th minute when Mo Diame played a one-two
thre with Issac Hayden to welly the baall into the net in front of the Toon
faithful to lift the roof off that end of the groond!
Up until
this point the game had been dire az aa watched the full moon rise above the
ground---(aa waz THAT bored with the proceedings on the pitch!)
If anything the 2nd half waz WORSE iz we failed
miserably to add to wor score.
Wigan had
chances to equalise and one shot in particular waz brilliantly saved by Karl
Darlow in The Toon goal!
And then the
decisive goal!
Gouffran ran
doon the left flank and crossed the baall to (super sub) Atsu who hit a sweet
left footer into the roof of the net to claim the 3 points and send us back to
the top of the table!
Not a good
game to watch---but it’s the points that matter!
Toon
team: Darlow, Anita, Lascelles, Clark, Dummett, Richie (Atsu 69), Shelvey, Hayden,
Gouffran, Diame, Gayle (Perez 82)
The
pre match ‘gargels’ took place here!
