Wigan boss Martinez satisfied with Everton draw

Wigan Athletic boss Roberto Martinez was happy with their stalemate against Everton.

Martinez was impressed with his side's defensive display and even felt they should have snatched victory at the end.

"When you come to Goodison you need all your players to be concentrating and on top of their game and I think (goalkeeper ) Ali Al Habsi had two or three moments when he showed his quality," said the Spaniard.

"I felt we finished the stronger side. In the first half Everton got a very good momentum and were winning territorial advantage and we just needed to defend well with a lot of composure.

"The performance was what we had to do and was what was needed to get a positive result but in the manner we finished the game I feel we dropped two points."
