As it happened: Preston North End 2-0 Barnsley

Helik is booked for a foul on Ched Evans.

Ledson’s corner drops in the six-yard box, Lindsay sees a shot blocked before Storey eventually forces the ball home. PNE lead 1-0.

Chance for Barnsley, Brittain’s long throw flicked on by Dike, with Helik’s overhead kick saved comfortably by Iversen.

Long throw from Barkhuizen is flicked on in the box, VDB gets behind the defence by the post and his shot blocked by the keeper.

Storey jumps to meet Ledson’s corner but heads wide of the far post

Conor Chaplin slices a shot wide after being found by Woodrow’s pass from the left side of the box.

PNE have a corner with two minutes gone, forced by Sepp van den Berg

We have kicked-off at Deepdale.........

Declan Rudd is warming up alongside PNE’s goalkeepers this afternoon, though he isn’t in the squad it’s great to see North End’s no.1 back looking fit.
