Huddersfield Forward Laurente Depoitre Blasts Referee Michael Oliver After Terrier's Defeat

Huddersfield Town striker Laurent Depoitre has blamed referee Michael Oliver for his side's 2-1 defeat against Brighton on Saturday.

The Terriers saw striker Steve Mounie sent off in the first half against the Seagulls when leading 1-0, a decision that drastically altered the shape of the game.

Brighton took advantage of the dismissal as goals from Shane Duffy and Florin Andone secured their second away win of the season.

Mounie's shin-high tackle on Yves Bissouma was deemed to be worthy of a red card by Oliver, a decision that has left Depoitre questioning the consistency of the officials in the Premier League.
