Referee Chris Kendall brandished four yellow cards, two of them to England forward John Bateman, after struggling to keep tempers in check in a match packed with all the brutality and intensity expected of a Wigan-Saints derby played in front of a Super League season's best crowd of 16,390. The talent pool within women's darts has never been stronger. Lisa Ashton became the first female to win a Tour Card at Q-School in January 2020, while Fallon Sherrock continues to flourish - reaching the final at the Nordic Masters in Copenhagen last weekend. Pressure looked to be mounting on Preston head coach Frankie McAvoy when Paddy McNair headed Boro in front in the 33rd minute. And after the referee waved away a handball claim when Tavernier's effort was blocked in the penalty area, Preston countered and were gifted the winner.
