LONDON, Dec 24: Arjen Robben's injury-time goal saw reigning champions Chelsea maintain the pressure on English Premiership leaders Manchester United with a dramatic 3-2 win away to Wigan on Saturday (partially reported in Sunday’s edition).

It looked as if United, 3-0 winners away to Aston Villa earlier on Saturday, would be left with a four point lead after Wigan striker Emile Heskey scored twice to make it 2-2 at the JJB Stadium.

But Chelsea, 3-2 victors away to Everton last weekend, snatched all three points when Dutch international Robben scored his first goal of the season with a shot that left Wigan keeper Chris Kirkland wrong-footed.

The win meant second-placed Chelsea remained just two points behind United.

Goals from Solomon Kalou and Frank Lampard left the Londoners 2-0 up after just over half-an-hour's play.

However, former England international Heskey pulled a goal back when he headed in Josip Skoko's free-kick on the stroke of half-time.

Heskey then made it 2-2 in the 75th minute from what looked like an offside position.

But Robben's strike secured Mourinho's 100th victory as Chelsea manager in spectacular style.
