Harrogate Town 1, Huddersfield Town 4

Jul 20 2005 By The Huddersfield Daily Examiner

While Abbott captured all the attention up front, manager Peter Jackson was able to send on Booth for John McAliskey at half time and the club's senior striker had a very encouraging workout.

Not only did he tee up Abbott's fourth goal but he went close to scoring himself in the 77th minute.

The chance came from the best move of the match - 10 passes involving six different players and finished with a perfect cross from Adams which invited Booth's eight-yard header.

He made an excellent contact, too, but Taylor was up to the task and made a magnificent save.

By that stage, Harrogate were starting to make inroads at the other end, especially through their impressive substitute Chris Coupe whose pace and skill brought a new dimension to the game.

Coupe shot just over the bar and brought a fine diving save from Paul Rachubka, and he was finally rewarded for his work with a goal in the penultimate minute. Town's back line, for once, went to sleep and were caught square by a through ball from Sam Denton which put Coupe in the clear.
