Poor but win

Preston duly beat Oldham 1-0 in a game which they were fortunate to come away with a win. North End scored within the first five minutes of the game, Clarke should have headed home but completely messed up his header, luckily if fell to King who blasted home from 12 yards.
Oldham passed the ball about as they do, but apart from an exocet of a shot by Elokobi and a Clarke-Harris which was deflected for a corner create little. North End apart from the goal created less.
Oldham should have been level straight after the break Forte headed wide when he should have scored. Oldham dominated possession but found it hard work against the resolute home defence. Clarke-Harris brought a good save from Jones and sub Morgan-Smith should have done better but missed when well placed.
North End offered little apart from a mazy run by Browne from the cross Garner should have scored.
The classic poor performance which gets you 3 points.
