Wigan manager Roberto Martinez said the match was a "David and Goliath" battle.
Manchester City finished the match with 10 men after Pablo Zabaleta was sent off with six minutes left.
Wigan, who are currently in the third relegation spot and three point away from safety, play Arsenal on Tuesday and Aston Villa on Sunday.
Club chairman Dave Whelan said: "There is no celebration. We have two massive games. We’re going straight back and the players will be in training tomorrow.

"They are all aware that they are not celebrating until Sunday. No champagne, nothing to drink at all. They can celebrate when they stay in the Premier League."
Wishing the team the best of luck...
