Live blog: Wigan Athletic v Crewe Alexandra

FT Latics 2 Crewe 0.

Latics again not at their fluid best, but again get the job done. Five clear of third spot with three games in hand.

Kerr for Edwards, four minutes to go.

Goal 2-0 Latics, a blaster from James McClean!

Feel like a broken record here...Power just plays the ball off a Crewe defender...linesman literally five yards away, gives it to Crewe...Power incensed...Latics win a throw 30 seconds later, Lang celebrates with both arms in the air like he's scored. That's how bad it is.

Humphrys and Shinnie for Magennis and Keane, midway through the second half. #wafc

Brilliant cross from McClean, Lang pulled away from his marker and planted the header home from 10 yards.

Goal 1-0 Latics, it's Callum Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang!

Callum Lang has just been mugged by not one but two defenders, he gets the better of them somehow and then the free-kick goes to Crewe. Genuinely staggering stuff.

Directors box watch:

Paul Warne here for the second time in four days...also Alex Neil is here ahead of Sunderland's visit later this month.

Crowd here at the DW is 8,509 with 287 from Crewe.
