Rodallega again terrorised Stoke’s goal as the striker raced through the hosts' failed offside trap but his lofted effort over Sorensen was cleared by the well-placed Ryan Shawcross.

The Colombia international continued his influence and the striker's persistence assisted Moses for the game's opener after a driven pass across goal was met at the near post by the 21-year-old, who poked the ball past Sorensen.

Stoke saw enough of the ball after half-time to get their best chance of the game so far, as Rory Delap launched the ball into the Wigan box from the touchline for Robert Huth to get his head to, but the German could only nod the ball onto the post and into the hands of Al-Habsi.

Stoke eventually took the initiative following Jerome's introduction. A long throw into the area by Delap saw the striker’s header handled on the line by Gary Caldwell. Walters converted the resulting penalty to pull the hosts level.

A break for the Potters moments later saw the ball headed in the path of Jerome who slotted home the ball past Al Habsi and into the far corner.

However, at the other end, Wigan were handed the second penalty of the afternoon and substitute Watson powered the ball past Sorensen to bring the score back to equal terms in a flurry of action.

The draw has left Stoke eighth in the Premier League, while Wigan are in 18th, two points behind QPR.
