Stoke moves out of danger zone after late win
Luke McNally scored a late winner as Stoke City boosted its survival hopes with a 2-1 EFL Championship victory over play-off hopeful Preston North End at Deepdale.
Andrew Hughes was unfortunate to put through his own goal after 64 minutes to give Steven Schumacher’s Potters the lead.
Preston substitute Milutin Osmajic’s clever finish – three minutes later – levelled matters before McNally’s 87th-minute winner clinched a surprise victory in Lancashire to take it three points clear of the relegation zone.
Ryan Lowe’s side’s play-off hopes were dented as it fell to a first defeat since January and it now lies five points off the top six.
