Sunderland 2 - 0 Wigan highlights

What: Daryl Murphy's thunderbolt helped to give Sunderland some breathing space in their fight against relegation, as the Wearsiders ran out 2-0 victors over Wigan Athletic at the Stadium of Light. Latics boss Steve Bruce must have felt like the hosts got away with daylight robbery, as the home goal led a charmed life in the second half. In fact the Black Cats must have used up all of their nine lives before Murphy's strike on 75 minutes. Chance after chance went begging for the visitors as last-ditch tackles, the woodwork and some great goalkeeping denied them a way back in to the clash.
