1 ................... TOWN Town’s crucial strike

special to spark it into live with Brown the man to duly oblige.

As the half-hour mark approached, the forward picked up the ball in time and space 20 yards out and bent a shot into the bottom left-hand corner of Wolves’ net.

The rest of the half passed without incident and as the whistle blew for the interval Wagner would have been pleased with Town’s display and goal with the side relatively comfortable throughout.

The German head coach’s half-time team talk would have simply urged more of the same and to guard against complacency.

And should his side have needed anymore warning it came in the 53rd minute as the hosts nearly equalised against the run of play – Andi Weimann drawing a good save from Town’s keeper Danny Ward before Dave Edwards hit the post with the rebound.

Despite the scare, Town still continued to comfortably dominate the proceedings and should have extended their lead when Aaron Mooy’s free-kick was finally met by substitute Collin Quaner in the box who fired wide when well placed.

And as the clock dwindled down there was always the nagging worry there would be some form of late drama which has become so synonymous which this marvellous Town season.

On this occasion there wasn’t and as referee Tim Robinson blew the whistle for full-time a weight was lifted from Huddersfield Town’s shoulders as David Wagner’s men had finally booked their place in the endof-season lottery.
