Title hopes are kept by man City alive - FOXSports.com

UpdatedAApr 17, 2013 6:11 PM ET Revive the most effective action photos from the Barclays Premier League. A bit of individual wonder from Carlos Tevez passed Manchester City a win against Wigan in a rehearsal for next month's FA Cup final. The Argentine bagged the winner after turning past two players on the edge of the field before crashing his shot in to the roof of the net with eight minutes remaining. Franco Di Santo and Arouna Kone missed great possibilities for the Latics who stay in the relegation zone and three factors from protection. The very first half was rather low key as both parties returned to group activity after their emotionally and physically-draining semifinal victories last weekend. Wigan started confidently, stroking the ball around nicely but without great penetration. They won two sides in the first four minutes, but failed to capitalise. Aleksandar Kolarov exhibited his free stop vast before Sergio Aguero shot across goal and did not win a free-kick outside the area, but apart from that there is little activity of note in the opening thirty minutes. There as Wigan made a gleaming move with Kone flooding forward and Shaun Maloney backheeling into the course of Di Santo then followed a of activity. Read the shakers and movers inside our Club Power Rankings list. The Argentinian did exceptionally to jink round two defenders and open his human anatomy to take but Hart parried low to his left. Area raced upfield in answer but Aguero did not get a touch on Tevez's dangerous low mix. City survived a few scares immediately after as first Maloney the system wrongfooted Micah Richards and beat Hart with a shot from a tight position just for Joleon Lescott to clear off the point. Wigan appeared to get close again when Paul Scharner headed contrary to the bar from a free-kick however the hole had been raised for offside. After that near miss, heartbreak followed for Wigan as a typically sublime winner was struck by Tevez. The Argentinian turned away from two defenders on the side of the place and jinked past a third before curling an attempt in to the top place. It was his eighth target in eight games and left Wigan in underneath three as you of these beneficial games in hand had slipped away. Town, meanwhile, reduce Manchester United's lead at the top to 13 points, and now the side's need to do all of it again at Wembley next month.
