Scorers are listed for Wigan Athletic only: the article gives no scorers for the other side, or they do not add up to its score.

According to Wikipedia: the scorers and minutes in the clubs' season articles, shown because each article's score equals this archive's and the scorers add up to it. The two clubs' articles list them differently, so both are shown. Own goals are listed under the side they counted for.
