Wigan Athletic sunk by last-minute sucker punch against AFC Wimbledon
Wigan Athletic ended their home League One campaign on a losing note after Wimbledon substitute Antwoine Hackford popped up with the only goal in the very last minute at the Brick Community Stadium.
Latics dominated for the majority of an admittedly poor game, although it was Wimbledon – who spent most of the afternoon in the bottom four before climbing out at the end – who had the better chances.
Layton Stewart found himself through one on one in the first half, only to be denied by a fantastic save by Sam Tickle.
The other moment of note before half-time was a bizarre incident which saw assistant manager Terry Skiverton punch the ball - which had just gone out of play - from the technical area towards the Wigan goal.
Referee Matt Corlett walked over and brandished a straight red card.
As the game entered the final quarter, Hackford thought he was in on goal before Will Aimson came across in the nick of time to make a great interception.
However, Hackford wasn't finished, and he was in the right place at the right time to convert fellow substitute Zack Nelson's cross with seconds remaining to dump Gary Caldwell’s former club Exeter City back into the relegation zone with one game remaining.
