Wigan 5 Crystal Palace 0

ANDY Liddell broke Wigan's all-time goalscoring record in style as Paul Jewell's men produced a five-star performance to sweep aside woeful Crystal Palace at the JJB Stadium.

The 30-year-old Scot grabbed a brace to add to fine goals from Geoff Horsfield and Nathan Ellington as the Latics regained their unlikely spot at the top of Division One in spectacular fashion.

Liddell's 67th club goal came after just 10 minutes and saw him overtake David Lowe's mark for the Lancashire side.

And it was a goal worthy of the occasion. Latics winger Jimmy Bullard worked the ball inside to Ellington, who in turn played in Lee McCulloch.

The midfielder immediately fed Liddell, who steadied himself on the edge of the area before firing an unstoppable shot past goalkeeper Thomas Myhre, on loan from Sunderland.

With Palace creaking at the back, Wigan poured forward and Horsfield forced a fine save from Myhre after latching on to Nicky Eaden's cross.

A neat flick from Nathan Ellington then put Horsfield clean through, but again Myhre was alert to the danger and made the save before another Eaden cross saw the former Fulham and Birmingham striker head wide.

Fine strike

But Horsfield was not to be denied a celebration of his own, and marked his 30th birthday with a fine goal on the half-hour.

He latched on to a long clearance and held off Tony Popovic and Shaun Derry before lifting the ball over Myhre to put Wigan two up at the break.

The hosts offered Palace no respite in the second half, and were immediately rewarded with a third goal.

Neil Shipperley, who had seen nothing of the ball up front, was harshly adjudged to have handled in his own area allowing Liddell hit goal number 68 from the penalty spot.

And Palace's defensive ineptitude was ruthlessly exposed by Ellington five minutes later.

Derry and Popovic were again at fault, inexplicably allowing Ian Breckin's punt to bounce and then watching open-mouthed as Ellington expertly curled his fifth goal of the season past the helpless Myhre.

Liddell then turned provider on 69 minutes, capping another flowing Wigan move with a superb right-wing cross which the unmarked Ellington gleefully nodded home.

The hosts could have added to their tally - Horsfield fed Bullard when a shot would have been the better option from, while Ellington shot straight at Myhre.

But Wigan settled for five to heap the pressure on Palace boss Steve Kember and fire a warning to the division's heavyweights that they intend to be in the promotion shake-up come May.

Have your say on Wigan's fantastic win

What was great about that game, was that it was on the telly and at one time the cameras zoomed in on the 5 - 0 flag....... commentators had a bit of a chuckle.
