Wigan's victory over Hull in the 44th round of the Championship with a score of 8: 0 allowed to rewrite several pages in the book of the history of English football.
Match Wigan - Hull became one of the most successful hosts in the history and one of the most shameful guests in the history - reports ORTA.
Never before in its history did Wigan score 8 goals in one championship match and beat opponents with a goal difference of 8 goals.
Wigan became the first team to score at least eight goals in one Championship match in the 21st century. The last time, something like this was possible for Manchester City, who beat Huddersfield in 1987 with a score of 10: 1..
Wigan became the first team to score 7 goals in the first half of the England Championship match in the first four divisions since 2015 after Watford mocked Ipswich in 2015.
Jamal Lowe became the hero of Wigan, who took part in four goals: he scored one of the goals and gave three assists - the same as for the previous 31 match.
Note that the last time Hull lost with a score of 0: 8 in November 1911 (Wolves).
This defeat complicated the Yorkshire “tigers” struggle for survival, but absolutely guaranteed the survival of the “Latiks”.
