Video: Abu Ogogo sets a Shrewsbury target

Town's nine-match unbeaten run was ended by a 5-1 defeat to League One leaders Wigan on Saturday.

It was their biggest ever home defeat at Greenhous Meadow and the heaviest in front of their own fans, since losing by the same scoreline to Ipswich in Division Two in September 1988.

Yanic Wildschut, Jason Pearce and Will Grigg (penalty) turned the game with goals in nine minutes either side of the hour after Conor McAleny cancelled out Kaikai's 11th of the season.

Grigg added a fifth late on. Zak Whitbread was sent off for fouling Grigg for the spot-kick and Ogogo – skipper for the suspended Nathaniel Knight-Percival – admitted it wasn't Town's afternoon.

But he reckons they can bounce back after the defeat left them five points clear of the drop zone with seven games left.

The midfielder said: "It was one of those days – they scored a penalty, we had a man sent off and it was backs against the wall.

"But we've been on a good run and hopefully we can start another one.

"Hopefully, it won't affect us too much – the gaffer told us to keep our heads up because it happens in football.

"We've got another game on Saturday (at Millwall) so we need to concentrate on that. I'm going to have to gee the lads up, we've got to make sure we put it behind us.

"We've lost once in 10 games. We need to pick ourselves up and go again."

Meanwhile, Ogogo believes Kaikai has the world at his feet after he made it six goals in six games.

The 26-year-old said: "Hopefully, he can fire us to safety and go and do what he needs to do. He scores goals, he's creative and he's got a bright future.

"There are a lot of players at Palace like that – Wilfried Zaha, Yannick Bolasie, and Jason Puncheon, so he definitely fits in."
