Dimitar Berbatov was the star of the show with a hat-trick in the Boxing Day fixture at Old Trafford on 2011, completing his treble from the penalty spot.
Ji-sung Park had opened the scoring, inside eight minutes, and Antonio Valencia drilled in a beauty against his former club.
Patrice Evra set up the first goal, for his great pal Park, with a mazy dribble and Wigan had no answer to the rampant Reds. After Conor Sammon was sent off, Berbatov then displayed great strength inside the box to eventually convert a cross by Darron Gibson.
