Carlos Corberan keen to analyse what went wrong for Huddersfield Town against Preston North End

Huddersfield took the lead through Fraizer Campbell against North End at the John Smith's Stadium on Saturday afternoon but two second-half goals from Alan Browne saw the visitors take all three points.

The Terriers were reduced to 10 men with 12 minutes to play when Naby Sarr was sent off for bringing down Emil Riis Jakobsen as he threatened to break through on goal.

But for Corberan the key moment was the first 10 minutes of the second half when Browne scored twice in as many minutes to give Huddersfield their first defeat this month.

"We did really well in the first half and in the second period of the second half but after we scored they started to control the game more," said Corberan.

"They made us run more than normal without the ball. Our idea was to start strong because we knew they would press us a lot.

"We need to analyse what happened in the first 10 minutes of the second half because that is what stopped us getting something today."

Despite being a man down, Huddersfield pushed for a winner until the final whistle but that did leave them vulnerable to the Preston counter-attack, with the visitors squandering several chances to seal victory when a goal to the good.

Terriers right-back Pipa hit the post in stoppage time and Corberan was full of praise for his side's never-say-die attitude.

He added: "The start of the game was very good for us because we were able to beat their press.

"We thought we could create some chances by passing between the lines and by winning the long balls and the second ball.

"I appreciate the effort of the team, going until the end, even when we had a player less. They were enthusiastic and played with plenty of energy and effort.

"That was very nice, it is important to never give up in any kind of circumstance."
