Division Two leaders Wigan were held to a draw at Chesterfield and were fortunate to escape with a point.

Chris Brandon almost set up a winner for the home team deep in stoppage time but no-one could turn in his low cross.

Wigan had plenty of possession but created few chances and the closest they came to scoring was a Jason De Vos header that was cleared off the line on the hour.

There were few openings for either side but Chesterfield wasted a chance two minutes after the break when Brandon volleyed over from 10 yards, while Nathan Ellington almost got through near the end for the visitors.
