Man Utd 5 Wigan 0

Dimitar Berbatov collected an Old Trafford hat-trick as Manchester United recorded a 5-0 victory over 10-man Wigan at Old Trafford.

The Bulgarian was making only his second Premier League start of the season but he enabled the Red Devils to shrug off defensive worries, adding to Park Ji-sung's early goal in the first half before netting twice more after the break.

Antonio Valencia was also on target for the hosts, who romped home once Connor Sammon had been dismissed for elbowing Michael Carrick.
