NAHKI WELLS
Andre Gray's first-half double helped Burnley to a 2-1 win over Nahki Wells and his Huddersfield Town teammates at Turf Moor.
Gray's fifth strike in Burnley colors from the spot handed them an early lead before he added another just before the break. Michael Duff put through his own net late on to halve the deficit.
Huddersfield had a golden chance to grab one back 15 minutes before the end when Jamie Paterson's lobbed ball found substitute Wells, but the Town striker blasted over with the goal gaping.
Wells did better moments later when he turned on the edge of the area and drew a decent save from Heaton.
As Huddersfield still pressed, Emyr Huws collected a loose ball on the edge of the area and fired at Heaton, with the stopper parrying the 82nd-minute effort to safety.
But from Town substitute Kyle Dempsey's low cross, Clarets skipper Duff put the ball past a helpless Heaton to give Huddersfield late hope.
