City’s FA Cup hoodoo against Wigan Athletic struck again as Will Grigg struck a late winner for the League One side to end hopes of a clean sweep of domestic silverware.
The Blues played the second-half with 10 men following Fabian Delph’s straight red card and City have now lost three FA Cup ties in five years against the Latics including the 2013 final.
