Wigan바카라s Martial Godo came closest to breaking the deadlock, only to fire against a post in the second half.

At the other end, Wigan were indebted to England Under-21 goalkeeper Sam Tickle for pulling off, in the words of Moore, 바카라an outstanding double save바카라 to deny James Plant and Baylee Dipepa.

The point lifts Vale out of the relegation zone, and Moore says that will give them a 바카라psychological boost바카라 for their last five games of the campaign.

바카라It바카라s a good day for us at Port Vale, getting the clean sheet and how valuable that point is in terms of the psychological boost of getting out of that bottom four,바카라 he said.

바카라While we바카라ll take that today, we know the work isn바카라t nearly finished, it바카라s only given us a platform.

바카라And we have to continue to perform, keep that togetherness, and keep that unity going forward.

바카라As a group we certainly feel we could and should have taken maximum points, but their goalkeeper has pulled off an outstanding double save."

바카라The first one, he was going the other way, and then he gets up and makes another save.

바카라Credit to him for earning them a point, but I just thought both teams were at it, both teams were pressing on, and it was a good footballing match.

바카라We pressed them high up the pitch, and I liked the way we played on them, and forced errors, which we should have capitalised more on."

바카라Overall it was a solid performance, and you바카라re always happy with a clean sheet away from home.바카라

For Wigan boss Shaun Maloney, it was a third game in a row where his side have failed to beat a relegation-threatened side, after a home draw with Burton and a defeat at Cambridge.

바카라It wasn바카라t too bad, it was just OK,바카라 he said. 바카라I know it finished 0-0, but both teams had chances.

바카라The first 20 minutes was OK, but for the next 25 minutes we became a bit toothless really."

바카라The second half was a bit better, we had chances to score, as did they바카라the overall performance was just OK.

바카라In terms of effort and the mentality of the players 바카라 something I really challenged the players on 바카라 I couldn바카라t ask for any more."

바카라Port Vale are desperate for points, and they went very aggressive during parts of the game."

바카라When that happens, you have to use the forward passes enough, we just didn바카라t recognise when to play the forward pass."

바카라I liked the way the three centre-backs (Charlie Hughes, Charlie Goode and Jason Kerr) played, the forwards they have are good players and I never felt in massive, massive danger from open play."

바카라Sam Tickle has also made an amazing double save, and he바카라s just a brilliant player."

바카라I say it every week, but there always seems to be a moment where Sam influences the result, and that was the case again."

바카라Those four players were the stand-outs for me.바카라
