and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
Tranmere started well with lively forward Harvey Saunders doing well to work the opening, only to fire wide from 15 yards.
At the other end, James McClean's left- wing cross was headed over by Stephen Humphrys.

Hide AdA brilliant move from Tranmere - featuring some nice one-touch passing - cut through the Latics defence, with Saunders in again, but this time he was thwarted by the feet of Ben Amos.
Latics worked a good chance for Charlie Wyke, who latched onto a bouncing ball on the edge of the box but, as the goalkeeper came out, his lob cleared the bar.
Nice footwork from Humphrys then saw him cut inside on his left foot, only to drill his shot past the far post.
The home side took the lead seven minutes after the restart, and it was third time lucky for Saunders, whose powerful shot was too good for Amos.

Hide AdLatics, though, were level 19 minutes from time, with a cracking header from Adams off a Humphrys cross.
And Humphrys almost laid on a late winner for Wyke, but the striker stabbed wide from a great position.

Latics: Amos; McHugh, Mitchell, Watts, McClean; S Smith, Shaw; Humphrys, Lang, McManaman; Wyke.
