The Black Cats went into the game with new boss Lee Johnson at the helm, but it was the Latics who came away with the result thanks to a first half strike from teenage striker Kyle Joseph.

The strike was the Scot’s first for the senior side, and secured a first league win for his team since the beginning of October.

Here are some of the best reactions from fans on social media:

@natpeel7 tweeted: “Done the club and fans proud every single one of them”.

@SpainWigan tweeted: “MASSIVE”

@PhilCrompton3 tweeted: “Wonderful”.

@HughNozza tweeted: “YESSSS. The 2 month wait is over”

@hjeffries5 tweeted: “I can’t believe we won.”

@_BenFinch tweeted: “Mad that”

@Nessie3151 tweeted: “Fantastic win for the young lads. Kyle Joseph deserves his goal he has been outstanding this season”
