00:07Two sides for whom form has been hard to come by, but what an opportunity to change the narrative tonight
00:13Ryan Lowe rings the changes five in total
00:16Jenson Weir has missed the last four but returns to action tonight in place of Sessegnon
00:19Also dropping out of Murray, Mullin, Trevitt and Smith a full 11 changes from the weekend
00:24Goalkeeper Will Norris captains the side continuing his run of starts in the League Cup this season
00:28It's a new squad
00:31Players in yellow to prove they can be trusted by the new boss get us underway deceiving
00:37Wimbledon to promotion last season
00:41To get up and running in the third tip
00:50Think was coming back from an off-site position
00:58It's been brought back for it earlier offside
01:03Huggins
01:08Field it comes but it's one back in midfield
01:12Forward now for Costello to chase
01:18Still Costello
01:20Bit of space on the edge of the box for Cooper
01:22Cooper
01:24Cooper started the move by winning the ball back
01:26Picked out by Costello
01:28The space to touch to get it forwards and does it
01:34Finds Asamoah
01:35Right
01:38Possession dominated by the away side
01:46But neither
01:47Are able to register a shot on target so far
01:50And that's actually the story of the match really
02:01Hungbo
02:01Waiting for an option to present itself in the end
02:05Asamoah does so but he has his pocket picked straight away
02:07McNeely
02:08Pocked on by Fink
02:12And here's Huggins
02:14Finished to stay on side
02:19Huggins inside to Boyd Muntz
02:21Still Boyd Muntz
02:23What a fabulous opening goal
02:26Oh isn't it amazing what confidence can do
02:34Picked out by Huggins but he had so much to do
02:37First touch took him away from Cooper
02:39And how about that
02:43From the moment it left his boot
02:46It looked as though it was evading the desperate
02:48Outstretched arm of Sam Tickle
02:51And nestling
02:52In the back of the net
02:53Plenty to aim out
02:55Plenty forwards in blue and white
02:58And his Hungbo's ball in
03:00Half clear
03:01Borges Rodriguez will collect
03:03Tries to create the space to deliver
03:10Tries to create the space to deliver
03:11He does well he's around Fink
03:12Clips it across
03:13Flips on
03:17Somehow it stays up
03:19Because that really should have been 1-1
03:20should have been 1-1. Borges Rodriguez did so well, so I'll defeat the dummy not
03:26once but twice. In it came, flicked goalwards, from there, Jameson would have hoped to smash that into the back of the net.
03:50But there was a lengthy delay early on as the assistant referee was withdrawn, injured.
03:55That's a loose pass back, Costello will get there, goalkeeper does just enough, and then away from Asamoah.
04:01Morris, very nearly sold short by his defenders, Finn back, didn't get enough on it, the goalkeeper was caught,
04:08away from Costello and then Asamoah. Here's Huggins.
04:14To Boyd Munz who tries his luck again, goodness me.
04:17Almost a carbon copy, arrowing towards the top corner, but this time, Tickle was across.
04:27To make the breakthrough and then very nearly adds a second from even further out.
04:33In comes the corner, Finn flicks it on. Infuriating, period.
04:39The goal scorer stands over the set piece, Boyd Munz.
04:43In it comes, not in half clear.
04:45Flicked back goalwards and then thundered away.
04:48Now that will be enough.
04:50Head into the break.
04:51The Latics, as the visitors make a change.
04:55Madness, Vestergaard, is withdrawn.
04:58From this place comes Alex Lowry.
05:0122-year-old Scotsman.
05:03He started both previous League Cup ties.
05:06He's on at half time in this one.
05:09Ligon will get us back underway.
05:12After an opening period that was really stop-start, scrappy.
05:18Pulling and pushing.
05:19To position as this corner is to be delivered by Boyd Munz.
05:23Delivered deep.
05:25Oned behind by Ames.
05:26Take two.
05:48Plenty to aim at in the middle.
05:51Taken shot.
05:52Lowry finds Abbott.
05:54Back to Lowry.
05:56It's neat.
05:57It's cute.
05:58Lowry finds Abbott again.
06:00Stood up to the far post.
06:01And nodded home by McNeely.
06:06A glorious set piece routine pays dividends.
06:10And what a moment for the 19-year-old who scores his first goal for Wickham.
06:15His first goal in senior football.
06:17And may well have given Wickham a place in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.
06:22Wigan caught cold from the corner.
06:34The interplay between Lowry and Abbott.
06:36And the latter standing it up to the far post.
06:40Where McNeely was just too strong for his marker.
06:44May still be a teenager.
06:47But that is a classic centre-forwards goal.
06:50If we get on to stage the unlikeliest of comebacks has to start soon.
06:57Malin desperately urging his teammates forward.
07:10Makes them to play higher.
07:11Bartolo.
07:18Abbott.
07:19Lowry.
07:20Abbott again.
07:21Lowry again.
07:23Tickle saves.
07:25Fingertips of the goalkeeper.
07:27What an effort it was.
07:31Two youngsters.
07:32Neat interchange.
07:34This one needed stopping.
07:36Disappointing night for Wigan Athletic.
07:38And the Latics Carabao Cup journey comes to an end at the expense of a resurgent Wigan Wanderers.
