  • Wigan Athletic 3-1 Chelsea: First Defeat

    Wigan secured a famous 3-1 victory over 10-man Chelsea, their first over one of the 'big four' in 35 matches, at the DW Stadium to knock the Blues off the top of the Premier League table.

    Titus Bramble headed the Latics in front in the first half, only for Didier Drogba to pull Chelsea level just after the break thanks to an error from Chris Kirkland.

    Eight minutes into the second half Hugo Rodallega ran through and was brought down by Chelsea keeper Petr Cech, who was red-carded - and the attacker smacked the spot-kick home.

    In injury time Paul Scharner slid in to finish after Maynor Figueroa squared across the six-yard box - and set the home fans celebrating.

    It was not less than Wigan deserved as they enjoyed a good deal of the ball after the opening goal against a Chelsea side missing Joe Cole and Michael Ballack, out with a cold and calf injury respectively.
