Celta Vigo downs Wigan

13 August 2012-PA Sport

Wigan Athletic went down to a narrow 1-0 defeat against Primera Division side Celta Vigo in its final pre-season friendly.

The Latics began the match in the Balaidos Stadium brightly with Albert Crusat forcing a good save from Javi Varras in the home goal, but came under pressure towards the end of the first half and Alex Lopez was unlucky to see his strike crash against the crossbar.

Vigo continued to press in the second period and Ali Al Habsi was forced into several fine saves before Iago Aspas finally found space at the far post to beat the Wigan goalkeeper for the game's only goal.
