Wigan Athletic are beating Cardiff City at half time in their FA Cup match.

The home side started well as Kevin Theophile-Catherine's cross was just too strong for Jo Inge Berget.

However, the first sight of goal was for Wigan. Ben Watson played the ball wide to James Perch, who shot wide of the target from inside Cardiff's box.

The visitors looked comfortable on the ball, but the Bluebirds were also confident in possession.

The Premier League side were soon behind, however. Jordi Gomez got to the left byline and drilled the ball across the face of goal. Waiting in the middle was Chris McCann, who slotted in from six yards out.

The Latics continued to play some nice football, but the Welsh outfit equalised against the run of play.

Mats Daehli found Wilfried Zaha in the area, but the winger was crowded out. However, the ball dropped for Fraizer Campbell, who smashed in a low shot.

Daehli and Zaha then combined again, but the Norwegian was unable to keep his shot down.

Despite appearing to be in control, Cardiff conceded for a second time just before the break. Gomez rolled a free kick to Watson, who hammered his shot in from 30 yards.
