At first, the change was difficult to spot.
Brighton had been moving the ball comfortably since kickoff, but now there was a little more intent behind it.
A midfielder received possession and turned instead of recycling it backwards.
Another stepped into a pocket that hadn't been there a second earlier.
The passes were still simple, yet each one seemed to pull Wigan a little further out of shape.
Before Leo fully recognised what was happening, Solly March had found space between the lines and was already facing forward, running with the ball, trying to make something happen.
Leo stepped across immediately while Max Power shifted over with him as the midfield duo worked in tandem to block the inside route, but March threaded the pass through it anyway.
The opening couldn't have been much wider than a yard, but João Pedro had started his run before the ball even left March's foot.
