As it happened: Preston North End 4-1 Cheltenham Town

Connor Wickham pulls up hurt and Sean Maguire comes on in his place.

The ball falls to Perry on the edge of the PNE box and he strikes on the half volley and it is deflected but Rudd is down to hold onto it.

Emil Riis’ long throw is only as far as Greg Cunningham on the edge of the area who strikes hard but high.

Maguire clips a well-weighted ball over the top for the run of Riis who chests it and looks to strike straight away but he misses the ball, inside the box.

Quick fire chances for PNE as Maguire’s tackle falls to Rafferty in space, the right back stinging the ‘keeper’s palms.

Andrew Hughes heads home from a Ben Whiteman corner to give PNE the lead!

Barkers is booked for a late challenge on Lindsay.
