Both teams started the match sluggishly - there were no accurate passes or dangerous episodes. However, the gloomy picture was brightened by a great goal - in the 25th minute, goalkeeper Jimmy Bullard sent the ball into the helpless Thomas Sorensen's goal with a great shot. Later, both teams had several chances to score, but they failed to capitalize on them.
The second half started with a flurry of goals. The first one was equalized by Colombian J.P. Angel, scoring a goal after a great run by Milan Baros and a pass from Gabriel Agbonlahor from the wing. Nevertheless, soon Wigan celebrated a two-goal lead, when H. Camara, through individual mastery, scored two goals in 4 minutes, giving the hosts a two-goal advantage.
In the 67th minute, Aston Villa caught the home team defenders off guard, who tried to play an offside trap and soften the score, but they didn't manage to equalize.
