Preston manager Alex Neil told BBC Radio Lancashire:
"I don't think there was a lot in it. In the first half we had little periods when we were on top, but our final ball let us down.
"There wasn't much in it. These games are all about not giving the ball away cheaply. We did that far too often.
"If you get an opportunity you need to make sure you put it away and be clinical. We created as many chances as they did. The difference is they had the ball in the back of the net and we didn't."
Swansea City head coach Steve Cooper:
"It was a tough game but our performance was good. In the first half we got into some good positions and didn't quite capitalise on them.
"We looked a real threat and kept it going in the second half. Bidwell should have put us 1-0 up - we've watched it back and he's onside. It would have been a fantastic goal but, as Bidwell does, he keeps going and gets in again and Gibbs-White gets in the six-yard box to put it in, a brilliant team goal.
"We had to show the other side of the game then to see out the result. A lot of balls in our box but Freddie Woodman hasn't really had a save to make which tells you all about the heart and soul of the latter stages. A really good start."
