Tottenham 3 – Wigan 1 (Premier League, January 31, 2012) Tottenham hit the back of the net on the hour mark as Gareth Bale chested down a Modric pass before drilling home his 8th goal of the season. Luka Modric doubled Spurs’ lead in the 33rd as the ball fell to him inside the D, the Croatian swivelled and smashed the ball home with his right foot. The Latics were killed off in the 64th when Gareth Bale collected the ball in the box on the left and hit a low fizzer into the far corner. Wigan got a lifeline ten minutes from time when a James McArthur shot in the box dipped over Friedel after a deflection off Parker.
