United move closer to title

Manchester United will be crowned Premier League champions on Saturday if they avoid defeat against Arsenal at Old Trafford after a 2-1 win over Wigan.

Michael Carrick's 87th-minute winner set up a title party at the weekend after United had once again fought back from a half-time deficit against a brave Wigan outfit.

Hugo Rodallega put the Latics in front with a fine finish but Carlos Tevez produced an impudent back-heel within minutes of his arrival as a substitute, with Carrick having the final word.
