Man City vs Wigan: Uwe Rosler hails shock win as his 'greatest' managerial achievement - The Mirror

The German - who played more than 150 times for the Blues - was understandably delighted after seeing his side reach the FA Cup semi-finals

Wigan Athletic manager Uwe Rosler claimed the biggest scalp of his managerial career after leading his team to a heroic 2-1 win over Manchester City at the Etihad.

The cup holders have been rewarded with a return to Wembley, where they will face Arsenal.

The Latics boss made an emotional return to the club in which he holds cult hero status and claimed the win as possibly his greatest achievement.

Rosler told BT Sport: "Is this my greatest day in management? Probably. This was my chance to partially replicate what Roberto Martinez did last season.

"When you play Man City you have to keep your discipline because they see so much of the ball, but we put pressure on them. At the end City had nothing more to lose and they pushed everything at us.

"I felt City's goal was offside, Joleon Lescott was interfering with our goalkeeper. It should have been offside. But I spoke a lot about bravery, and we also had lady luck on our side.

"Overall I am so delighted. I am so happy for the chairman and the players. And what a block from Emmerson Boyce [to deny Edin Dzeko]."
