A dramatic late equalizer from substitute Charlie Lennon rescued a point for Barnsley after they looked set to suffer a disappointing home defeat. Wigan had taken the lead through Joe Taylor's well-taken finish on 29 minutes and looked comfortable for much of the contest, despite being reduced to ten men when Callum Wright received his second yellow card with just two minutes remaining. However, Lennon's 90th-minute strike ensured the spoils were shared in what was a scrappy encounter that saw five players booked. The result keeps both sides in mid-table mediocrity, with Barnsley's late rescue act potentially crucial for their League One ambitions.
