Division Two: Preston North End 2 Colchester United 3
NORTH End's poor home form continued last night when Colchester took all three points from a nerve-racking Deepdale clash.
The U's snatched a late winner after David Moyes' side had fought back from two goals down and seemingly rescued a point.
But in truth Preston didn't deserve a share of the spoils after full-back Joe Keith had put his side into a shock lead, which was extended by the outstanding Lomana Tresor Lua-Lua, who notched one of the best goals seen at Deepdale all season.
Supersub Brett Angell then levelled with the first two goals of his North End career, before Carl Diguid spoiled the party with an 87th minute stunner that bounced agonisingly in off the post.
