Ethan Chislett treble wins thriller for Port Vale

A hat-trick from Ethan Chislett saw Port Vale climb above Wigan in the League One table with a 3-2 win.

Vale were dominant from the off and frustrated Wigan, who struggled to get out of their half.

The well-deserved opener came in the 21st minute after a Gavin Massey cross reached Chislett who struck well from close range.

The second goal came just before the break as a super turn from Oliver Arblaster allowed him time to find Chislett who doubled his tally.

The hosts continued to attack after the restart and nearly extended their lead but for a string of saves from Sam Tickle.

Wigan pulled one back after 63 minutes when substitute Chris Sze scored from the edge of the box with his first touch of the game.

The visitors levelled 14 minutes later after a perfect cross from Callum McManaman landed at the feet of Charlie Wyke who slotted home.

Chislett grabbed his third and the winner in the 83rd minute with a sensational solo goal sending the home crowd into a frenzy.
