Huddersfield boosted their survival hopes with a shock 4-2 victory over promotion-chasing Middlesbrough.

Neil Warnock’s team fell behind just before the break, Marcus Forss putting the visitors ahead. But an inspired Huddersfield came out fighting in the second half and claimed a vital three points through goals from Josh Ruffels, Josh Koroma and two from Matty Pearson. Chuba Akpom scored Middlesbrough’s second, but there was no fightback from Michael Carrick’s side.
