Sorba Thomas double turns red card into a Huddersfield Town turning point

Matty Pearson - not easy dealing with Gary Madine, who beat him in the air for his goal, but he did a decent job all things considered, moving into the centre of the back three 6

Tom Lees - picked up a very concerning injury just after the half hour which knocked him out. he was at fault for the opening goal, but has been a key player this season, so Huddersfield will be hoping he is back soon 5

Naby Sarr - a replacement for the ill (not Covid) Levi Colwill, he did not have his best game and was substituted in the chase for victory 5

Sorba Thomas - two wonderful finishes inside three minutes to win the game 8

Scott High - no lack of effort from the midfielder 6

Lewis O'Brien - showed flashes of his quality 7

Harry Toffolo - produced some good crosses, including for Danny Ward's goal 7
