Wigan Athletic Vs. Manchester United: Franco Di Santo Goal Ruled Out For Offside

Well, Franco di Santo has the ball in the back of the net for Wigan, but the whistle had already gone for an offside called on Hugo Rodallega, who was about five whiskers behind the last man in the Manchester United defence. Good call by the linesman there, but Wigan are desperately unlucky not to be level after a series of dangerous attacks.

Meanwhile, Gary Caldwell has gotten away with murder for a crunching tackle on United left back Patrice Evra, coming in late and essentially jumping on the defender's ankle in the protest. Somehow, no card was produced, and Evra's back up and running after some time down.

Goalscorer Javier Hernandez, on the other hand, has not avoided punishment from the referee, the Mexico intenational picking up a booking for an altercation with Hugo Rodallega, which the announcer amusingly described as a 'South American squabble'. I don't know either.
