HUDDERSFIELD TN 4
SHEFFIELD WED 0
The Owls edged the first half and went the closest to opening the scoring as Michael Ihiekwe had a header cleared off the line by Rhys Healey.
But Huddersfield grew into the Yorkshire derby and blew the visitors away in the final quarter, scoring four goals in 12 minutes. Matty Pearson, a Josh Koroma brace and Sorba Thomas strike clinched only Huddersfield’s second win in 12 outings.
Academy boss Worthington, placed in temporary charge of the first team following Darren Moore’s sacking, said: “It was a privilege for me to take the game. I have been here since I was nine years old; I’m normally sat with my kids in the stand supporting. To be asked to step in and do that was a great honour and I’m in dreamland when it’s 4-0. I will sit back tonight and no one can take that away from me. It is a special moment for me and my family, who are here every single week.
