Manchester City Vs Wigan : FA Cup (0 - 1) On 11th May 2013 by mukina2: 5:32pm On May 11, 2013
Wigan boss Roberto Martinez wants his players to be themselves - to play the game, not the occasion, and see where that takes them. You can certainly argue that far more pressure is on City.

There are 15 minutes until kick-off (tradition always used to dictate that the final had its own day and kicked off at 3pm, but no longer).

Wigan chairman Dave Whelan will lead the team out alongside his manager Martinez. Whelan broke his leg playing for Blackburn against Wolves in the 1960 FA Cup final. He says he feels a sense of "unfinished business" at Wembley stadium.

And now the national anthem. More big cheers, and the handshakes between players and managers. Two minutes or so until we're under way.

1'Wigan get the final under way - referee Andre Marriner the man in the middle this afternoon.
Aguero on the edge of the Wigan box, to the right. He's forced back, though, and now the ball is on halfway. Still with City.They launch the first pass upfield of the final, and Joe Hart scurries to the edge of his area to lay claim to that one.

2'Toure slips the ball forward and Zabaleta has space to cross from the right. Wigan didn't deal with that convincingly, until Espinoza bangs it clear.


Mancini's men have been very composed in their early passing. Toure and Tevez are looking at the set piece...

3'And still City - Nasri this time, on the left. Aguero takes it up and is clipped on the edge of the area. A very early and very dangerous free-kick for Manchester City.

4' Tevez hits it into the wall, Toure lashes the follow-up, Joel saves and Aguero is offside as he tries to pick up the pieces.

5'They're closed down by City as they try to put something together - but then Mancini's men lose the ball as well.


6'Alcaraz loses the ball, overplaying things a bit inside his own half. No harm done on this occasion, though.


7'McManaman, fed on the right, switches the play to Espinoza on the other side. Back it comes again - and in steps Yaya Toure.

8'Alcaraz steps in well inside his own half to win the ball back for Wigan - again, though, they can't keep it.


9' But they win it back and Kone has a chance to run... he feeds McManaman with a superb ball. He has time on the right of the area, checks inside - and curls his shot wide of Hart's far post.


.10'Maloney is felled for Wigan in midfield - they're lifted by that chance. They don't make anything of the free-kick, however

11' Throw to Wigan near the City area, and that creates one or two moments of uncertainty before Mancini's side get it away.


12' And now Wigan have a free-kick, midway inside City territory. Gomez swings it in but it's too high, too long, and no bother.
