Its Tuesday 29th October 2024 and in this evenings show we react to the high drama at Bloomfield Road last as the ‘Pool overturned a two goal deficit with the equaliser coming in the dying embers of the match, and we then fluffed another chance to win it!
Blackpool 2 - Wigan 2
First Half:
Formation and Tactics: The team sets up in a 4-4-2 formation, which the author criticises as outdated and uncreative.
First 20 Minutes: The game starts with poor quality play from both sides, described as "attritional" and "quite shit."
Wigan's First Goal: Wigan scores by exploiting the wing, isolating a defender, and finishing with a late runner.
Response from the Team: The team shows some signs of life with a few decent plays, including a run and shot by Fletcher and good crosses from "The Rapter."
Missed Opportunities: Joseph has a chance to score with a chip but is denied by the Wigan keeper. Another long-distance shot from "The Rapter" goes just over.
Wigan's Second Goal: Evans loses the ball while trying to make a pass, leading to a Wigan goal as the defenders fail to respond effectively.
Second Half:
Tactical Shift: Agnew instructs the team to play more direct, launching the ball forward frequently.
Defensive Struggles: Wigan creates several chances, with notable last-ditch blocks and a good save from the goalkeeper.
Lack of Possession: The team struggles to keep the ball, resorting to hopeful long balls.
Fletcher's Efforts: Fletcher attempts an overhead kick and is later involved in a penalty appeal, but nothing comes of it.
Substitutions: Wigan makes a puzzling substitution, removing effective wing-backs. The team brings on Jordan Rhodes, who comes close to scoring twice.
Formation Change: The team switches to a 4-3-3 formation but continues with ineffective long balls.
Late Equalizer: In injury time, Robbie Apter scores with a drilled shot to the near post, salvaging a draw.
