Sam Morsy on Target against Bournemouth in the FA Cup

Sam Morsy on Target against Bournemouth in the FA Cup

Wigan, who won the competition five years ago but have since slipped down the divisions, overcame a weakened Bournemouth side with a first-half effort from Sam Morsy and quick-fire second-half goals from Dan Burn and Callum Elder.

Bournemouth made eight changes to the side that had beaten Arsenal on Sunday, clearly signalling where the FA Cup lies in their priorities as they battle to steer clear of the Premier League relegation zone.

Morsy swept home after Will Grigg’s initial effort was saved, substitute Burn volleyed in from Max Power’s cross and Elder headed in at the far post to complete a superb victory for the lower league side.
