Huddersfield Town came out victorious in their first match of pre-season yesterday.
The Terriers hosted League One club Morecambe in a behind-closed-doors friendly, with Ben Jackson bagging a first half brace before Jordan Rhodes made it three for the hosts shortly before full-time.
The match allowed the players to build up their fitness, with two different starting line-ups featuring across both halves.
Town will take the short trip to North Yorkshire this weekend for their second pre-season clash with Harrogate Town.
