Premier League Review: Dirk Kuyt saved Liverpool's blushes at Anfield where they came from behind to beat Wigan 3-2 in today's Premier League clash.
The Netherlands striker's acrobatic volley with five minutes left sailed past former Liverpool goalkeeper Chris Kirkland to give Pool all three points.
Amr Zaki had looked to have secured the win for Wigan with his sixth and seventh league goals of the season.
He scored a blistering over-head kick on the stroke of half-time to give Wigan the lead after giving the visitors the lead on 28 minutes after a mistake by Daniel Agger.
The defender made up for his error five minutes before half-time when he went on a surging run down the right flank before cutting inside and squaring to Dirk Kuyt who turned the ball home.
Albert Riera levelled the scores with 10 minutes left before Kuyt secured the win.
Arsenal came from behind to snatch all three points at the Emirates where they faced Everton.
Second-half substitute Theo Walcott ensured all three points in the dying minutes after a one-two with Abou Diaby to make it 3-1.
Everton had taken the lead after a well-taken goal from Leon Osman after 10 minutes but Arsenal hit back through Samir Nasri and Robin Van Persie before Walcott sealed the win.
Sunderland boss Roy Keane will feel aggrieved that his side did not come away from Craven Cottage with more than a point after a 0-0 draw against Fulham.
Kieran Richardson saw his first-half free-kick ricochet agonisingly off both posts and had a similar second-half free-kick ruled out for pushing in the wall.
Djibril Cisse also rattled the woodwork with a late strike, but Fulham held on for the draw.
Aston Villa played out a 0-0 draw with Portsmouth at Villa Park.
John Carew came closest to scoring for the hosts but to David James' relief, his last-gasp strike struck the bar and sailed over.
Brad Friedel pulled off an impressive save to deny Sean Davis after three minutes and both sides failed to break the deadlock thereafter.
It was the same story at the Reebok where Bolton's game with Blackburn ended in a goal-less stalemate.
Robbie Fowler made his first start for the visitors after Roque Santa Cruz was ruled out through injury, but the former Liverpool striker could not find the net.
Bolton's best chance came from Jlloyd Samuel on the hour but his shot looped over Paul Robinson after an intervention from Chris Samba.
In the day's early kick-off Chelsea went three points clear at the top of the League table after thumping Middlesbrough 5-0 at the Riverside.
Luiz Felipe Scolari made the long trip north without eight of his first-team regulars but his squad's strength in depth was clear to see as they condemned Boro to the heaviest defeat of Gareth Southgate's reign.
The visitors dominated the first half and went in at the break 1-0 up after a 14th-minute goal from Salomon Kalou.
Juliano Belletti doubled Chelsea's lead in emphatic style six minutes after the break when he hammered a swerving 35-yard strike past Ross Turnbull in the Boro goal.
Kalou made the points safe with his second with 37 minutes left to play when his shot took a wicked deflection off Middlesbrough defender David Wheater.
Frank Lampard gave Scolari further reason to be cheerful when he turned in Chelsea's fourth with a close-range header after a slick move between Kalou and Nicolas Anelka.
Florent Malouda then pounced from three yards out after an Anelka strike squirmed through Turnbull's hands to complete the rout with 66 minutes on the clock.
