Moyes: We deserved win

Everton boss David Moyes felt his side were worthy winners in their 2-1 victory over Wigan at Goodison Park. Leighton Baines slotted home an injury-time winner from the penalty spot after Jo had been felled by Emmerson Boyce in the penalty area. Latics boss Roberto Martinez was critical of referee Lee Probert`s performance, but Moyes said: "We deserved to win that one, and I feel the penalty decision was correct. Jo's leg was clipped and he went down. "For a while I felt we were not even going to get a point. Sometimes you do not get what you deserve. But I felt we controlled the first half and our play improved. "Wigan were very competitive. When you lose a couple of games like they have, the first thing you do is to make sure things tighten up, and Wigan did that and made it difficult for us. "That penalty decision could be key to the way our season goes. We could not afford to go into the international break without a victory."
