Neither side could find a breakthrough in the first half of the Championship clash between Wigan Athletic and Leeds United at the DW Stadium.

The Whites were presented with the first opening of the match as Sol Bamba managed to rise highest in the penalty area to head Luke Murphy's cross at goal, but Scott Carson was able to make the stop.

Charlie Taylor threatened again for the visitors when he raided forward on goal after cutting in from the left flank and unleashed a powerful strike which went just over the bar.

Wigan's first effort in the game came when Kim Bo-kyung was afforded space and time on the edge of the area to drill a low strike towards goal, but Bamba was alert to the danger and made the block with his body.
