Wigan scored seven goals before half-time and ended up beating Hull 8-0 at home in a crucial Championship relegation battle.
Currently in administration and consequently with a 12-point deduction looming, Wigan Athletic mustered up a stunning victory at the DW Stadium on Tuesday night.
There isn't a club in the world that digs itself out of the shit quite like Wigan Athletic does.#wafc pic.twitter.com/cfLeZb9HgA

Grant McCann’s Hull City have won just once in their past 18 games, losing 14 of them. They remain in the relegation zone, now equal on the adjusted points of their opposition today.
These were the best tweets and jokes from Wigan 8-0 Hull:

For those that think this match is over, worth remembering that Wigan were 6-0 up against Hull in 2017 and lost.
Although that was rugby league tbf.

Hull are 475/1 to come back and win this game from 7-0 down at half time.
That means if you put £1 on, the authorities will soon arrive at your location to take you away.

Wigan now 8-0 up on Hull.
Haven't felt this sorry for The Tigers since watching Joe Exotic.

Wigan, facing a 12 point deduction, are 7-0 up against Hull.
If those points were deducted right now, they'd escape relegation. One spot ahead of… Hull. On goal difference. https://t.co/BI396F4UJk
