Huddersfield Town put in a gutsy performance which warranted more than defeat against their more illustrious Premier League rivals at the John Smith's Stadium this afternoon.
In a first-half tactical masterclass, David Wagner's men claimed the lead just before the interval when Christopher Schindler's header was turned into his own goal by Manchester City's Nicolas Otamendi.
Although the visitors dominated throughout it was more than Town deserved and the home side were unfortunate to find themselves on the end of a defeat.
Sergio Aguero's equaliser from the penalty spot early in the second period restored parity before Raheem Sterling claimed a lucky winner through a rebound.
