Hide AdNaby Sarr – two goalline clearances to prevent Barnsley scoring a second 7
Aaron Rowe – had his hands full with Callum Styles, but he was not a massive influence whilst the youngster was on 6
Jonathan Hogg – a typical combative performance which saw him finish in a back three 7

Hide AdLewis O'Brien – missed Huddersfield's only real chance of the second half 6
Duane Holmes – unable to attack much from wing-back 6
Josh Koroma – an unrealised threat in behind, it was asking a lot to keep it up in the second half after so long out 6
Yaya Sanogo – competed really well as the Town targetman 7.
Substitutes:
Scott High (for Rowe, 58) – energetic as always 6
Sorba Thomas (for Edmonds-Green, 69) – it was his ball which fell for O'Brien 6
Danny Ward (for Koroma, 69) – a difficult situation to turn around when he came on 5
