Half-Time Report: Leon Barnett gives Wigan Athletic the lead against Ipswich Town

By , Reporter
Wigan Athletic lead Ipswich Town 2-1 after the first half of their Championship match.

Wigan Athletic are leading Ipswich Town 2-1 after the first half of their Championship match this afternoon.

The home side came close early on when Daryl Murphy was picked out by Paul Anderson in the box and his close-range effort was turned around the post by Ali Al-Habsi.

In the 19th minute Ipswich took the lead through Tommy Smith, who fired home after Wigan had failed to clear Aaron Cresswell's free kick.

Their lead didn't last long, and within three minutes the visitors levelled when Marc-Antoine Fortune pulled the ball back for James McClean to drill a strike past Dean Gerken.

With three minutes of the first half left to play Wigan took the lead, as Leon Barnett met Jordi Gomez's free kick to head an effort into the back of the net.
