DELIGHTED boss Nathan Jones saluted a ‘complete away performance' after his Luton side moved within three points of the Championship play-off places with a hard-fought win at struggling Swansea.
An even contest was settled with less than 20 minutes to play when substitute Harry Cornick swept his shot across goal from the edge of the box to give the Hatters all three points.
“The tactical awareness was wonderful,” said Jones. “We were strong, aggressive, disciplined and clinical.
“Game-changers came on and won us the game, so it was a complete away performance.”
Millwall and Preston shared the points in south-east London, with neither side able to make the breakthrough. The best opportunity to break the deadlock came on 65 minutes but Preston midfielder Ben Whiteman hit the post from the penalty spot.
