Cherries: Howe's men battle to DW draw (with video)
4:57pm Saturday 5th January 2013 in Sport
By Neil Meldrum
CHERRIES battled to a hard-earned draw at the DW Stadium this afternoon to take their place in tomorrow’s FA Cup fourth round draw.
Eddie Howe’s side made a mockery of Wigan’s Premier League status during an impressive first-half performance, with Eunan O’Kane’s goal on 41 minutes handing the visitors a deserved half-time lead.
But Jordi Gomez tapped home from close range 20 minutes from time to force the two sides into a replay after his initial penalty had been saved by Shwan Jalal.
Boss Howe made four changes from the side that lined up against Brentford on New Year’s Day, with David James, Wes Fogden and Brett Pitman dropping to the bench and Lewis Grabban missing out through illness.
Jalal, Josh McQuoid, Richard Hughes and Matt Tubbs came into Howe’s starting line-up.
Roberto Martinez, meanwhile, made nine changes from the side that was hammered 4-0 by Manchester United on January 1.
Cherries started brightly, showing no sign of nerves.
Some neat fourth-minute link-up play between Charlie Daniels and Marc Pugh down the left saw Daniels get a cross in, but Mike Pollitt in the Latics goal was able to snaffle up the delivery.
Steve Cook was on hand to clear Danny Redmond’s cross to safety moments later, while Jalal safely gathered Emmerson Boyce’s dangerous ball into the penalty area.
A quick free kick on 14 minutes saw Daniels cross from the left and the ball broke invitingly for Tubbs, but the striker was dispossessed by Redmond as he shaped to shoot.
Mauro Boselli might have done better after 21 minutes, but his shot on the turn while under pressure from Cook failed to trouble Jalal, before referee Bobby Madley took centre stage when booking Pugh for diving just after the half-hour mark.
Pugh burst into the box from the left channel and was barged out of the way by Roman Golobart, but Madley blew for a free kick in Wigan’s favour before handing Pugh a caution.
Jalal saved well from Boselli moments later after Harry Arter had been dispossessed in midfield, before O’Kane handed Cherries a deserved lead four minutes before half-time.
O’Kane created some space having picked up the ball midway inside the Latics half, before ghosting towards the box and unleashing a perfectly-placed left-foot drive past Pollitt.
Martinez handed a debut to Manchester United loanee Angelo Henriquez at half-time, with Redmond making way and the Chilean made an immediate impact when his header from David Jones’s free kick skimmed Jalal’s crossbar.
At the other end, McQuoid’s left-foot snapshot after 56 minutes looked to have beaten Pollitt but dipped narrowly over the bar, while Boyce went close moments later for the hosts.
Martinez’s men began to really push hard for an equaliser around the hour, with Golobart’s header flying over after 64 minutes before a wonderful, swerving left-foot drive from Maynor Figueroa, from all of 35 yards, came crashing back off the crossbar.
As Cherries defended resolutely, though, Wigan were rewarded for their endeavours when Simon Francis pulled back Figueroa inside the box after 68 minutes and referee Madley pointed to the spot.
Jalal saved the penalty from Gomez, but the Spaniard was on hand to bury the rebound.
Howe’s men continued to battle, though, and Pollitt saved well from substitute Wes Fogden’s curling effort after 73 minutes before Arter blazed over the bar from close range moments later following good work from Francis down the right flank.
Cook’s 89th-minute header was beaten away by Pollitt, but neither side was able to capitalise further.
Latics (3-4-3): Pollitt; Figueroa, Boyce, Golobart; Stam, Jones (Dicko, 79), Fyvie (McArthur, 79), Redmond (Henriquez, h-t); Gomez, Boselli, McManaman.
Unused subs: Espinoza, Kiernan, Campabadal, Al Habsi (g/k).
Cherries: (4-1-4-1) Jalal; Francis, Elphick, Cook, Daniels; Hughes (Partington, 90); McQuoid (Pitman, 88), Arter, O’Kane, Pugh; Tubbs (Fogden, 66).
Unused subs: Demouge, McDermott, Fletcher, James (g/k).
Booked: Pugh, McQuoid.
Referee: Robert Madley (West Yorkshire).

Listened to the commentary on Solent and the noise coming from our fans was fantastic. Well done to all the travelling fans and safe trip home.
Hopefully the replay will be on the box as an upset is more than possible.
Now time to focus on wiping the smiles off those smug Swindle fans next week!

Well done to the team and management on a creditable draw at Wigan and for keeping the unbeaten run going. However, it was pretty much their second team and I'm sure they will field a much stronger side back here so we're not in the fourth round just yet!

Great support from the travelling fans, well done to both the lads and the supporters, Matt Holland and Steve Claridge on the BBC both thought the penalty decisions wrong and that we deserved to win, Matt indeed wished he was playing - both ex Cherries of course, and glad to see they retain their loyalty to the Club. The run continues and will be tested in next weeks sell out game against Swindon, Swindon have sold the 1200 seats allocated to them. It would be great to win a televised game against Wigan and draw Man U at Old Trafford in tomorrows draw, a big pay day would help the Clubs finances.

Great fan turn out, great cherries goal, great cherries atmosphere, great cherries performance, a day to remember because it was the FA Cup, this competition produces these days.

When you played us last time we had several players out as well and the nonsense you had 12 players out when we beat you 4-0 is total rubbish.
It should be a good contest as both teams like to play football on the floor. The good thing from our persepctive you have Wigan reserves again the following week so hopefully your players will have their mind on that game. By the way when we beat Wigan they had the majority of thier first team playing and we were in L2 so says it all to me were superior.
The Paolo bandwagon rolls onwards and upwards.

You have never brought a large following of fans to our ground maybe this season was your largest and if i remember it was around 750 which is pathetic seems you keep bigging yourselves up. We will have more than the paultry 1200 you have given us and we have sold as there will be aload amongst you cherries fans.
When you played us last time we had several players out as well and the nonsense you had 12 players out when we beat you 4-0 is total rubbish.
It should be a good contest as both teams like to play football on the floor. The good thing from our persepctive you have Wigan reserves again the following week so hopefully your players will have their mind on that game. By the way when we beat Wigan they had the majority of thier first team playing and we were in L2 so says it all to me were superior.
The Paolo bandwagon rolls onwards and upwards.

Bournemouth have always been a small club and always will be as we are but were alot bigger than Bournemouth.
Next week you have Wigan and your players will be deflected for that game i reckon.
One day we may see Bournemouth sell out their allocation of tickets when you come to us. So £25 if for the privelege of seeing the total football we play under our maestro Di Canio. If you have one less pint pf beer whats the problem but no you probably have a skinful before the game but to you thats money well spent as opposed to spending it on seeing some quality football.

In terms of fan base Bournemouth are a small club, nobody has suggested otherwise, however i dont recall being in an embargo this season despite our smaller crowds and the financial fair-play rule. Very nobal of your fans to pledge money for transfer kitty, but as yet nobody has committed more than a tenner, so even with your massive crowds(average 8-9000) if everyone pledges(extremely doubtfull) you only going to raise 80k or so. What you gonna get with that.???. Oh and dont worry about the Wigan game, that will be resolved one way or the other when the time comes, right now we are totally focused on the job in hand, kicking your deluded Swindle arses on saturday. Now get back to ur bucket collecting and stop boring us.!!!!!!
steady eddie you may need one for the road. your away support is pathetic for a so called team and to criticise our ground when yours only holds 9600 and your average gates of 5-6000. A big club by the sound of it and lets face facts if you didnt have the russian loan money yes loan money not gift where would the mighty Bournemouth be. the only reason the bucket money is mentioned by the way as the board dont want to spend more money on signings so the fans have taken it off there own back to do it. we need to offload some players first before we sign any more because of the cap for L1 but if your too thick to realise that then sit back in your deck chair and get and have another afternoon nap old man.

You have the dodgy russian money and 6 times bust Mitchell running your ship and the fact mitchell is proud he has gone bust 6 times and ripping people off sums up your crooked chairman.
By the way be prepared for alot more than 1360 Swindon fans in your 3 sided mickey mouse ground on saturday were coming to take it over as lets face it your all pensioners down there any way. three o'clock will be your afternoon time for a nap steady eddie and you will wake up to some bad headlines at 5pm on saturday.
