Rovers 3-1 Wigan Athletic
A great result and an even more impressive performance which brings us back into touch with the top six.
Another nightmare for Samba though, regardless of whether it was a pen or not, he really shouldn’t have allowed Heskey to get goal side in the first place. But it seemed that the sending off only improved our perfomance and the way we kept the ball and carved Wigan open deserves credit.
Bentley, was as he has been all season, outstanding and it seems more and more inevitable he will be hot property in the summer. He continually showed his quality on the ball and creativity all over pitch.
And when he provides such good service, Santa Cruz can thrive, getting into the right positions and as he did, score two goals. Zurab also did his chances no harm with an assured display at the back, and I thought our midfield as a whole bossed the game.
Now we need to use this performance as a platform and make a final push towards Europe, if we can perform like this, there is no reason we cannot be in contention.
