MK Dons 1 Huddersfield Town 1: Novak misses Terriers penalty

Lee Novak missed a late penalty as Huddersfield drew 1-1 with 10-man MK Dons in League One.

MK Dons goalkeeper David Martin was the hero as his penalty save denied Lee Novak a late winner for Huddersfield.

Following early dominance the Terriers took the lead when Scott Arfield crashed in from close range after Alan Lee’s header came back off the post.

Dean Lewington lashed home an equaliser for the hosts after Ian Bennett parried Gary MacKenzie’s initial effort.

MacKenzie saw red for stamping on Alan Lee in the area but Novak’s spot-kick was wonderfully saved by Martin.

The result means Huddersfield, who have not lost in 34 league games - a record outside the top flight in England, remain in third place in League One.

MK Dons remain in fourth, level on points with the Terriers with a game in hand.
