Matt Scrafton's player ratings: Blackpool duo stand out as Neil Critchley's men claim hard-earned win against Wigan

Sullay Kaikai's strike at the start of the second-half was enough to give Blackpool a hard-earned 1-0 victory against Wigan Athletic last night.

Here's how Pool's players rated:

1. Chris Maxwell - 7/10

Another fairly quiet evening but when called upon he made a crucial stop to tip Kyle Joseph’s shot over the bar.

A much more composed display on his return to the side. Excellent going forward but rarely tested defensively.

Another assured display and seems to be improving with every game. Came close to scoring in the second-half.

Really struggled against Joe Garner in the first-half but got a lot better in the second period. Still acclimatising.

A fairly uneventful evening for the left-back. Kept it solid and went about his duties with minimal fuss.

Excellent display on his home debut. Tireless performance in the middle of the park and covers so much ground.
