Diame strike earns Martinez praise
Roberto Martinez paid tribute to midfielder Mohamed Diame after his stunning strike helped Wigan to a 1-1 draw against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.
Diame fired the Latics in front with a powerful 20th-minute effort before Kenwyne Jones rescued a point for the hosts in the second half.
Martinez said: "I am sure he was surprised as well because I haven't seen him striking the ball like that before.
"But he deserved that because he works extremely hard for the team.
"Momo is settling in the Premier League with ease, which is a great compliment because playing in that position, it is full of athletes in the Premier League and he is enjoying his football.
"To see him striking a ball as clean as that, it was a great finish."
