JAMES VAUGHAN won his battle with former
Everton team-mate Jack Rodwell as Wigan ended a five-match winless run.
Vaughan fired in a penalty to help send Blackburn to defeat. Gary Roberts handed Paul Cook (above) and his men the lead eight minutes before the break.
After Vaughan made it 2-0, Dan Burn’s own goal gave Rovers hope, but substitute Callum Mcmanaman swept home to clinch it late on. Clucas had given Stoke a first-half lead before Harry Wilson levelled with a classic free-kick.

FAMARA DIEDHIOU nicked it for the Robins in a crazy spell of secondhalf scoring to wreck Ipswich hopes of a win.
Freddie Sears fired Town ahead in the 32nd minute. But City levelled in the 55th minute, when Bartosz Bialkowski’s parry

Jamie Paterson (left) and five minutes later Diedhiou headed in the winner.
