Huddersfield 2-3 Middlesbrough: Boro progress in all-Championship tie

Middlesbrough came from behind to beat ten-man Huddersfield Town and advance to the second round of the EFL Cup.

Kian Harratt had put the Terriers ahead after three minutes but Jaheim Headley was sent off for bringing down Isaiah Jones 10 minutes later.

Samuel Silvera scored on his first Boro start to equalise for Michael Carrick's side.

Second half goals from Jones and Riley McGree secured victory despite a late consolation from Kyle Hudlin.

Having lost their Championship opener to Millwall, Carrick was rewarded for making only five changes to his starting line-up.

But sloppy defending as they tried to play out from the back allowed Harratt to open the scoring for the home team.
