Thelo Aasgaard’s dramatic winner five minutes from time – after George Saville had cancelled out Will Keane’s opener – means Wigan still have hope with two matches to play.
On the back of the midweek win at Stoke, Maloney was delighted to see his side once again ‘win the fight’.
“I’m very pleased, the performance was very good again, both in and out of possession,” said the Wigan manager.
“There’s definitely some aggression in that final third, and we’re now a very good, solid defensive team.
“You always want more as a manager, but I can’t not be pleased after that.
“I mention the word a lot, but I was so proud of the team again.”
