A penalty in each half from Daniel Johnson and Scott Sinclair respectively gave PNE all they needed. Here's how the players did on the night...
9. Daniel Johnson - 7
Never in doubt from the spot on his return from injury. Was straight back up to pace trying to make things happen high up the pitch, went off after a spot of cramp which hopefully shouldn't be serious.
10. Brad Potts - 8
Started on the right and moved centrally after Johnson went off, was full of energy all night and picked up some good positions inside off the right. Very important in PNE's pressing game.
11. Emil Riis - 8
A great start for the Dane who looked to have it all in parts, good in the air, on the deck and running in behind. Should have scored with a chance in the second half (pictured) but won a penalty just after.
12. Tom Barkhuizen - 6
Came on for Johnson with 20 minutes to go but with North End two up it was more of a case of keeping things tight, didn't really have much chance to make an impact in the final third.
