Wigan Athletic’s astonishing 1-0 FA Cup fifth-round win over Premier League leaders Manchester City, secured with minimal possession on Monday night, is being celebrated up and down the land.
The huge underdogs’ victory, and subsequent pitch invasion that saw Sergio Agüero clash with a fan, has kept the magic of the cup alive in many a football fan’s heart.
These are the best of the jokes after Wigan 1-0 Man City:
