Paul Gallagher was booked in the third minute of added time in the second half. Preston North End have won this competition twice, 1889 and 1938 and have also been runners-up on a further five occasions.

Comments:

Sheffield United are now unbeaten in the last five visits to Deepdale. Sheffield United have won 12 and lost just two of their last 17 FA Cup matches. Sheffield United have won this competition four times, though not since 1925. More recently, they reached the Semi-finals in 1993, 1998, 2003 and last season.
