Bottom club Wolves fought tooth and nail in the first half of their final Premier League game, but still went into the break trailing to a dynamic Wigan Athletic 2-1.
Wolves pulled a surprise out of the hat early on, stunning Roberto Martinez's in-form side with a superb opener from Matt Jarvis. The midfielder found space on the edge of the box and curled the ball into the top corner.
Wigan were only behind for four minutes. James McCarthy's pass found Franco Di Santo whose crisp shot found the bottom corner to level the score at 1-1.
The Lattics edged their noses in front just one minute later when Jean Beasejour's cross found the head of Emmerson Boyce to put the home team in the driving seat.
Wigan should have been three to the good on 25 minutes when Beasejour raced down the flank and teed up Di Santo for a golden opportunity, but Richard Stearman got his body in the way for a vital interception.
