Morsy hails 'fantastic' Wigan Athletic after Bournemouth humiliation

The Egyptian inspired Paul Cooks' men to victory over the Cherries in FA Cup replay and he has hailed his side for the brave feat

Wigan Athletic's Sam Morsy has praised his side's 'fantastic' display in Wednesday's 3-0 victory over Bournemouth in the FA Cup third round replay at DW Stadium.

The 26-year-old, who made his 24th appearance this season for the Latics, grabbed the opener before Dan Burn and Callum Elder strikes sent the Cherries packing.

"It was a fantastic performance and when you think of the players who were left out of the team as well it’s just incredible," Morsy told the club website.
