Wigan players proud of Chelsea point

Wigan Athletic players were delighted with their 1-1 draw against Chelsea.

Goal scorer Jordi Gomez believes Wigan deserved their last-gasp draw.

"I am scoring goals," Gomez told ESPN.

"After their goal I think our reaction was very good and in the end we got that goal and we deserved the draw."

Captain Gary Caldwell claimed Wigan's strength in adversity was key.

"We believe in the group of players that we've got and we showed great desire," he said.

"Everyone's pulling in the same direction. When you go on a run of defeats you need to stick together and we've done that.

"Chelsea are a great side and play some great stuff but we stuck at it and deserved a point in end."
