Heckingbottom Claims Preston Dominant in Millwall Draw

In a recent Championship match, Preston North End drew 1-1 with Millwall, with manager Paul Heckingbottom expressing frustration over missed opportunities. Despite conceding a first-half free-kick goal from Mihailo Ivanovic, Preston equalized shortly after the break with a volley from Emil Riis. Heckingbottom emphasized that his team was the dominant force, noting they had significantly more shots and touches in the opposition's box, with 16 shots compared to Millwall's nine. He argued that the free-kick leading to Millwall's opener should not have been awarded, adding to his disappointment. Although he acknowledged the draw as a positive result given the circumstances, he felt his side deserved all three points based on their performance. Preston is set to face Coventry next, with Heckingbottom returning from a touchline ban for the match.
