Rochdale 3-3 Wigan: Stephen Humphrys rescues point for Dale in six-goal thriller
Saturday 16 January 2021 18:59, UK
A stoppage-time header from Stephen Humphrys rescued a point for 10-men Rochdale in a 3-3 draw against Wigan.
Humphrys fired Dale ahead in the Sky Bet League One contest after seven minutes but the lead lasted just two minutes, Kyle Joseph turning in Dan Gardner's near post delivery to level for the visitors.
Wigan were ahead seven minutes later. Joseph was the provider this time, feeding a short pass into Callum Lang who brushed off Haydon Roberts to confidently fire past Gavin Bazunu.
Things got worse for Dale just before the interval when they were reduced to 10 men when Jim McNulty was shown a straight red card for kicking out at Joseph.
However, the 10 men equalised in the 62nd minute when Bazunu's long punt tempted Evans off his line and Jake Beesley beat the goalkeeper to the ball and headed into the unguarded net.
