Huddersfield Town manager Carlos Corberan praises these key traits in win over Peterborough

Huddersfield Town manager Carlos Corberan has described his side’s 3-0 win over Peterborough as ‘serious’ as they look to cement a place in the top six. 

The win meant Huddersfield continued their unbeaten which stretched to 18 in all competitions after this comprehensive win over strugglers Peterborough.
