Preston manager Frankie McAvoysaid:

"It's too cheap for us to allow the cross into the box. We had spoke about making sure you don't allow Diaz or anybody to get across the front of you for a header.

"We worked really hard on that to make sure it did not happen, but unfortunately he gets across and it's a great header from him.

"I didn't think there was much between the two teams at all. We probably had more of the ball.

"I've seen the penalty claim back myself. It looks like a penalty kick. The guy's hands are away from his body. I think that wee bit of luck evaded us."
