Wigan Athletic have nullified the threat of Nottingham Forest in the first half of their Championship encounter as the teams go into the break with the score at 0-0.
Wigan were the better side in the opening 45 minutes and Emerson Boyce had a wonderful opportunity to hand his side the lead in the 18th minute, but the Wigan captain sent his free header wide from just six yards.
Shortly afterwards, James McClean exchanged a one-two with Andy Delort and attempted a spectacular strike which came close to finding the back of the net.
Callum McManaman and McClean continued to torment the Forest back four, but couldn't find an opener as the game is still goalless at the break.
