West Ham's relegation from the Premier League was confirmed Sunday when it threw away a two-goal lead to lose 3-2 at Wigan, which ensured its own survival battle goes to the last day of the season.
The Hammers needed a victory at DW Stadium to stand any chance of beating the drop and were 2-0 up at halftime courtesy of Demba Ba's headers on 12 and 26 minutes.
The Latics stormed back after the break and Charles N'Zogbia scored twice, either side of Conor Sammon's goal.
The equalizer was enough to demote West Ham but N'Zogbia's stoppage-time winner left Wigan manager Roberto Martinez's side in the bottom three on goal difference alone.
