Wigan's Ryan Colclough had a day to remember on Tuesday after scoring twice and then dashing to make the birth of his son.

The 22-year-old winger was instrumental in his side's 3-0 win over Doncaster in League One, finding the net in the 45th and 58th minutes.

He celebrated his second goal by racing down the tunnel and dashing to the hospital, still in his full kit, where his partner was in labour with their second child.
