and looked pretty good. I felt we dropped our intensity and it seemed the game had become too easy for us, and obviously the first two times they entered our box they scored.
“At 3-0 they looked dejected and really we should have put them to the sword.
“I was disappointed in that fact but for 34 minutes I thought we were sensational. The bits in between were poor. I did not like us one bit but to see out the game like we saw it out is a positive.”
Joe Bryan and Mitrovic had put early efforts wide for Fulham, before the goal rush began.
Decordova-Reid beat Juninho Bacuna and Richard Shearman before firing into the far corner.
Cairney soon doubled the lead when he volleyed in Christie’s low cross.
And it looked game over when Mitrovic scored his 19th goal of the season. But from nothing Huddersfield struck twice in four minutes.
Bacuna’s free-kick found Christopher Schindler, who played in Smith Rowe to score. Smith Rowe then crossed for Mounie to score from six yards.
Terriers boss Danny Cowley said: “I’m not one for valiant defeats. But we showed determination.
“We had so many chances in the second half – we carved Fulham open time and time again.”
