Greg Cunningham scores the opening goal
Greg Cunningham scored a stunning goal as Preston moved level on points with Blackburn after defeating their hosts 2-1 in the Sky Bet Championship at Ewood Park.
The 100th league meeting between the two sides was ultimately settled in the first half through Cunningham s superb strike - his first since returning to Preston - and Liam Lindsay s close-range header.
Adam Armstrong s penalty in first-half added-time left the game in the balance but Rovers could not maintain the momentum and missed the chance to gain ground on the top six.
