On Wednesday, four matches were played in the English Premier League.
The leader "Man Utd" suffered a shocking defeat, being narrowly beaten 1-0 by "Wigan" fighting for survival in the league.
The only goal of the match was scored in the 50th minute with a great shot from distance by Shaun Maloney, and Sir Alex Ferguson's proteges can only blame themselves for the uncharacteristically sluggish play.
The team in second place, "Man City", took advantage of this stumble, reducing the deficit to five points as they effortlessly crushed "West Brom" 4-0.
Sergio Aguero scored a brace for the hosts, while striker Carlos Tevez scored the third goal in the 61st minute - his first since May of last year - and David Silva completed the opponent's rout.
