Mooy lively but Huddersfield held by Wednesday

The Australian midfielder was one of the Terriers' better players but both he and his team will need to do more to reach the Premier League

Socceroos midfielder Aaron Mooy was amongst Huddersfield Town's best players but was unable to break the deadlock against Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship's promotion play-offs.

Wednesday held on for a scoreless draw in Sunday's first leg at The John Smith's Stadium in Huddersfield, leaving the play-off semi-final evenly poised ahead of the second leg in three days' time.

Mooy was lively for large periods - mirroring the type of form that saw him crowned Huddersfield's Player of the Year earlier this month - but the 26-year-old and his team-mates were frustrated by the visitors in the Yorkshire derby.
