REPORT: Wigan Athletic 0 Solihull Moors 0

Wigan Athletic endured a frustrating 90 minutes as Solihull Moors held on for a goalless draw at the DW Stadium in the first round of the FA Cup.

Latics were almost off to a flyer inside 90 seconds with Gwion Edwards having a shot tipped over the top.

Tom Pearce saw a shot deflected over before Kell Watts limped off, to be replaced by Curtis Tilt.

Latics had a scare when Harry Boyes' corner missed everyone at the near post, and it was a good job Jamie Jones was alert to claw the ball away to safety.

But it was a tale of frustration for Latics, underlined at the break when Tilt failed to appear, with Luke Robinson replacing the substitute.

Another cracking effort from Edwards - again cutting in from the left on to his right foot - forced another very good save from Ryan Boot.

Corners from Pearce and Max Power caused mayhem in the Solihull box, with the latter's effort taking a couple of flicks on its way through before hitting the far post before being booted clear.

But the visitors too struck the woodwork after Jamie Jones got a hand to Callum Howe's header.

Despite the late introductions of Thelo Aasgaard, Jordan Jones and Stephen Humphrys, Latics couldn't quite find the key to unlock the determined visiting rearguard.

Charlie Wyke had the ball in the net in stoppage-time after rounding the goalkeeper, but the offside flag was long up.
