Huddersfield 2 - 1 Yeovil

Huddersfield   2 - 1   Yeovil

Michael Collins returned from a ban to hit the winner as Huddersfield came from behind to beat battling Yeovil.

Kieran Murtagh had put the visitors ahead early on with a 30-yard screamer - his first goal in senior football.

Gavin Tomlin then saw a penalty saved by Alex Smithies as the Glovers missed the chance to go two ahead.

Theo Robinson levelled soon after from close range before a powerful header from midfielder Collins secured the points for the hosts after the break.
