Leeds 1 Wigan 2

Jason Koumas scored both goals as Wigan beat crisis club Leeds in a pre-season friendly at Elland Road today.

Koumas put the Premier League side in front just a minute before the interval, slotting home after good work from Emile Heskey.

Jermaine Beckford equalised 10 minutes into the second half but Koumas sealed victory with a deflected free-kick on 69 minutes.
