Cauley Woodrow scored his first goal in nearly three months as Wycombe defeated Wigan 2-0 at Adams Park.<\/p>\n
It was the perfect start for the Chairboys as they were awarded a penalty inside the opening 60 seconds.<\/p>\n
Junior Quitirna, who was making his first league start in two games, was pulled back by Callum Wright, and referee Paul Howard pointed to the spot.<\/p>\n
Up stepped Caolan Boyd-Munce, who fired home beyond Sam Tickle to give Wycombe the lead.<\/p>\n
It was his fourth in all competitions this season, and his second against the ex-Premier League side.<\/p>\n
Despite going a goal ahead, it was Wigan that bossed the ball for the opening 45 minutes, with Fraser Murray, Christian Saydee and Joe Taylor all going close.<\/p>\n
The second period saw Will Norris get forced into his first save, as he pushed away a fierce Taylor strike, while Tickle was on hand to thwart Woodrow and Fred Onyedinma.<\/p>\n
The game was then settled with 18 minutes remaining, when the forward headed home from close range.<\/p>\n
His fifth goal for the Chairboys ended a 13-game goal drought for the former Fulham striker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cauley Woodrow scored his first goal in nearly three months as Wycombe defeated Wigan 2-0 at Adams Park.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":124908,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-442715","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/442715","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=442715"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/442715\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/124908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=442715"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=442715"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=442715"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
