Huddersfield Town earned a second Premier League win in as many games today, with a 1-0 victory over fellow promoted side Newcastle United.
Aaron Mooy bagged the only goal of the game with a sweet strike from the edge of the area following a sharp one-two with Elias Kachunga.
The three points keep Town in second place in the Premier League behind Manchester United with 36 games to go.
Here's how the win unfolded today...
