Huddersfield maintained their promotion push with a 2-1 victory over bottom side Wigan in League One.

Ilias Bronkhorst and Derensili Sanches Fernandes were on target for the Terriers, before Christian Saydee replied late on.

Huddersfield had to be patient in a game of few clear-cut chances before breaking the deadlock in the 34th minute.

Right-back Bronkhorst opened the scoring for the second game in a row, making a well-timed run to the back post to head home Cameron Humphrey's cross from the byline.

Wigan showed plenty of intent as they tried to get back into the game after the break, but lacked the quality required to create much threat on the Huddersfield goal.

The Terriers doubled their lead 10 minutes from time when Fernandes raced clean through on goalkeeper Joe Whitworth, whose slip allowed the winger the simplest of finishes.

Saydee curled home for the visitors in added time, but it was too little too late.

The hosts have now lost just one league game on their own turf in the past year, while the Latics have taken only a single point on the road since April.
