Sheffield United had earlier moved back into second after emerging 2-0 winners against 10-man Nottingham Forest. Leeds looked to be well on their way to three points when Wigan’s Cedric Kipre was red-carded for handling the ball on the line. However, Massey levelled for Wigan a minute before the break with a stunning strike and added a second with a header just after the hour mark. Massey’s double gives Wigan a five-point advantage over third from bottom Rotherham — who lost 4-3 to Swansea. “They (Forest) are a good side with an experienced manager so it was good to get in front, close the game out and get back to what we do,” United manager Chris Wilder told Sky Sports.
