Wigan slipped back to the foot of Sky Bet League One after a 1-0 home defeat at the hands of managerless Wycombe.<\/p>\n
Before the game, there was a minute’s applause for Wigan’s goalkeeping coach Kevin Miller, who died this week at the age of 57.<\/p>\n
Wycombe also showed their respects as striker Jayden Wareham – who was a colleague of Miller’s last season at Exeter – placed a wreath behind one of the goals before kick-off.<\/p>\n
After a first half totally devoid of any incident, Wigan wanted a penalty at the beginning of the second period when Fraser Murray went down in the area, but the referee waved play on.<\/p>\n
The opening goal eventually arrived with 22 minutes to go and it was the visitors who managed to break the deadlock.<\/p>\n
Cauley Woodrow created the opening for Dan Casey, who headed home from close range, leaving Wigan goalkeeper Joe Whitworth with no chance.<\/p>\n
Wigan made five attacking substitutions in the second period to try to muster a response, but a shot from one of them – Connor Barrett – that cleared the bar was the closest they came.<\/p>\n
