Callum McManaman "made up" with FA Cup win

McManaman "made up" with FA Cup win

Wigan Athletic winger Callum McManaman has admitted that he is "made up" with his side's FA Cup final win over Manchester City.

McManaman played a big part in Wigan's 1-0 victory on Saturday evening and said that manager Roberto Martinez's calming words helped them over the line.

"I'm made up," he told ITV Sport. "I had a feeling this morning that it was our day.

"The longer it went on, we had the better chances and we managed to do it. Before the game the gaffer said 'treat it like a normal game and don't be afraid'. I still can't believe it."

McManaman won the corner that led to Ben Watson heading in the winner late on.
