Fit-again frontman James Vaughan fired a hat trick as Huddersfield Town beat Doncaster 3-1 in their behind-closed doors game in Portugal.

Last season’s 12-goal top scorer missed the last eight matches of the Championship campaign because of a knee injury which needed surgery.

The 26-year-old has been in the USA for rehabilitation work after the operation to remove a cyst.

And his goal glut on the Algarve will be welcome news for manager Mark Robins and supporters alike.

Town were 3-1 winners over Cypriots AEL Limassol in a private game at PPG Canalside on Saturday.

Nahki Wells, Ollie Norwood and Martin Paterson scored in that clash.

The match against Doncaster, relegated to League I last term, took place at Vilamoura and was played in three 30-minute periods.

Rovers led through former Leicester midfielder Ritchie Wellens before Vaughan took centre stage.

Town, who flew to Portugal on Sunday, will now continue their training camp.

They have a public match against SC Portimonense in Albufeira on Saturday evening (6.00).
