HUDDERSFIELD Town were denied a late winner as substitute Michael Flynn hit both posts in stoppage time.

Andy Butler had equalised 10 minutes from time after Sam Baldock opened for the home side. But Huddersfield are still
looking for their first away win of 2009 after Flynn's shot somehow failed to cross the line.

Dons' only real effort of the fir
st-half came in a moment of magic when Dons' Jason Puncheon used an outrageous piece of skill to round his marker before rifling a shot against a post.

The second period was played out more in the Terriers' half as Dons upped the tempo. 15 minutes in, Jude Stirling played a ball through the middle that was dummied by Wilbraham, Luke Chadwick ran onto it and coolly squared for Baldock who tapped home into an empty net.

It forced Town to up their game and from an Anthony
Pilkington's corner, Butler's header was deflected in past the despairing dive of Willy Gueret.

In added time Flynn hit both posts with an effort from the edge of the box that left everyone baffled after a lightning quick break.

MK Dons: Gueret, Cummings, O'Hanlon, Llera, Stirling, Chadwick, Navarro, Leven, Puncheon, Baldock Wilbraham. Unused substitutes: Abbey, Regan, Gerba, Johnson, Belson.

Huddersfield: Smithies, Holdsworth, Lucketti, Butler, Williams, Clarke, Collins, Pilkington, Roberts, Craney (Flynn 68), Booth (Jutkiewicz 87). Unused substitutes: Eastwood, Jevons, Berrett.

Referee: Steven Cook (Surrey).
