James Hanson earns Bradford a point against Wigan
Striker James Hanson scored a 63rd-minute equaliser as Bradford came from behind to secure a 1-1 draw against Wigan at Valley Parade.
The result extended Bradford's unbeaten run in Sky Bet League One to four matches, while Wigan stayed unbeaten in nine league and cup matches.
The Latics went in front in the 53rd minute following a mistake by home midfielder Lee Evans. He lost possession to Yanic Wildschut, who raced down the right before crossing to Michael Jacobs, who scored from the edge of the penalty area.
However, Bradford hit back 10 minutes later, Hanson equalising with a strong header from Tony McMahon's right-wing corner.
Wigan's best effort in an evenly fought first half came in the 14th minute when Ben Williams was forced to make a diving save to deny Michael Jacobs after a surging run by the midfielder.
At the other end, Hanson saw his goal-bound header headed behind by Chris McCann in the 21st minute and goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen did well to keep out McMahon's volley four minutes before Wigan went ahead.
