Southampton proved to be the finest team David Wagner’s side have encountered so far, but the visitors were second best for much of this match. With sharper finishing in the first half here, Huddersfield might have plundered maximum points. Southampton, mind you, suffered from a similar problem late on, when they rallied powerfully. The second period was more balanced, and as time ebbed away Southampton launched a series of dangerous counterattacks. “Although even Huddersfield now have eight players going off on international duty,” added the manager, noting a further demonstration of his club’s rise.
