A meeting to indicate whose summer was more turbulent and Huddersfield Town comfortably took that dubious accolade.
With a hangover from losing the Championship playoff final and their chief executive, Dean Hoyle, still smarting at Carlos Corberan’s resignation three weeks before the season started, Huddersfield were lost for the majority of last night.
Under Vincent Kompany, Burnley appeared far more progressive, as crisp as their manager’s suit shirt. Surprisingly so, given the upheaval and lack of time absorbing the Belgian’s ideas.
MATCH FACTS
Huddersfield: Nicholls, Turton, Edmonds-Green (Nakayama 89), Lees, Ruffels, Hogg, Thomas, Russell (Kasumu 72, Rhodes 89), Holmes (Anjorin 56), Koroma (Rudoni 56), Ward.
