Tom Barkhuizen saw red after 22 minutes after a promising start from PNE but Stoke made their advantage pay. Here are the player ratings from the game...
13. Joe Rafferty - 6
Another brought on with little time to effect the game. Came on for Ledson to free up Alan Browne and took some set pieces whilst doing his usual steady work.
14. Andrew Hughes - 6
Brought on for Storey to go four at the back, defended well enough but didn't have much impact on the game.
4 / 4
