Huddersfield 1 Stoke City 1: Sobhi equaliser eases pressure on Hughes

Stoke have now taken four points from their last two matches after coming from behind at Huddersfield to improve Mark Hughes' prospects.

Stoke City came from behind to draw 1-1 with Huddersfield in the Premier League on Boxing Day and further ease the pressure on manager Mark Hughes.

Hughes had appeared to be fighting to avoid the sack before the Potters registered a 3-1 win over fellow strugglers West Brom last time out.

And a point away to David Wagner's impressive side, earned by Ramadan Sobhi's second-half equaliser, may earn the embattled boss more time ahead of a tough encounter away to his former side, reigning champions Chelsea, on Saturday.
