Sunday's Premier League highlights - in pictures
There was an eventful start at the Liberty Stadium when City conceded a penalty for a foul on Wayne Routledge in the fifth minute. Scott Sinclair was denied, though, as Joe Hart plunged to his right to save the spot-kick Photograph: John Sibley/Action Images The home side were dominant but didn't take the lead until the 83rd minute when Luke Moore headed home Routledge's cross Photograph: Alastair Grant/AP City responded in the closing stages when Micah Richards fired into an empty net ... Photograph: Nick Potts/PA Richards burst off in celebration, but the lineswoman Sian Massey correctly raised her flag for offside and the goal was disallowed Photograph: Nick Potts/PA Mario Balotelli sank to the turf at the final whistle - his dejection clear for all to see after a torrid afternoon for the visitors Photograph: Scott Heavey/Getty Images The City manager Roberto Mancini was equally glum. Despite tinkering with substitutions, his team were well beaten. Final score: Swansea City 1-0 Manchester City Photograph: Scott Heavey/Getty Images City's neighbours and title rivals enjoyed an easier afternoon with a routine victory over West Brom at Old Trafford. Wayne Rooney gave them the lead in the 35th minute when he diverted Javier Hernández's shot beyond the goalkeeper, Ben Foster Photograph: Matthew Peters/Man Utd via Getty Images West Brom's players appealed for offside, but Rooney was free to celebrate another predatory finish Photograph: Michael Regan/Getty Images United were dominant, especially in the second half, and showed few signs of the insecurities which plagued them in their Europa League defeat to Basel in midweek ... Photograph: Andrew Yates/AFP/Getty Images And the dismissal of Jonas Olsson for a second yellow card for a lunge at Hernández did West Brom few favours Photograph: Dave Thompson/PA When Ashley Young was felled by Keith Andrews, United were awarded a penalty. Rooney netted it with ease - his 15th goal in his last 14 matches - to ensure a victory for United which has lifted them to the top of the Premier League table, above City. Final score: Manchester United 2-0 West Brom Photograph: Michael Regan/Getty Images Amid dappled sunshine at Carrow Road, Norwich met bottom of the table Wigan Photograph: Jamie McDonald/Getty Images Wes Hoolahan volleyed Norwich into the lead in only the 10th minute Photograph: Jed Leicester/Action Images Adam Dury was guilty of a reckless challenge on Victor Moses, which sent his shin pad flying Photograph: Jamie McDonald/Getty Images Wigan dominated much of the match and scored an equaliser when Moses rounded the goalkeeper, John Ruddy, in the 68th minute. But the Wigan substitute Mohamed Diame spurned two great chances late in the match which could have given Wigan a precious win. Final score: Norwich 1-1 Wigan Photograph: Ian Kington/AFP/Getty Images
