Chelsea loanee's debut catches the eye in Huddersfield Town player ratings as familiar face scores well too up front

But Darren Moore’s side were far from disgraced in a performance of great heart and discipline.

Lee Nicholls – made a good tip-over from Sergio Gomez but would have been mentally prepared for more saves than he needed to make 6

Brodie Spencer – committed performance on his return from a loan at Motherwell 7

Rarmani Edmonds-Green – stood up well for a back-up centre-back playing at Eastlands 6

Tom Lees – unfortunate the second goal went through his legs 6

Michal Helik – his good interception ended up leading to Phil Foden's second goal 6

Ben Jackson – did himself justice at left-back 6

Jack Rudoni – unable to make his usual runs from deep but put in a good shift defensively 6

Alex Matos – outstanding debut bursting with energy where he showed good defensive commitment but a willingness to go on the front foot as well 8

Ben Wiles – struggled to make an impact 6

Josh Koroma – another who worked hard but had to sacrifice himself for the team 6

Sorba Thomas – his pace meant City could never switch off, whether at centre-forward for the first hour, or wide on the right for the final 30 minutes 7

Substitutes:

Bojan Radulovic (for Matos, 62) – debutant forced a good one-handed save from Stefan Ortega late on 6

Brahima Diarra (for Koroma, 81) – N/A

Tom Iorpenda (for Wiles, 88) – N/A
