Huddersfield Town striker Nahki Wells calls for '˜clinical' Terriers in second leg clash with Sheffield Wednesday
The Terriers were left cursing missed opportunities following their goalless draw with Sheffield Wednesday in the first leg of the end-of-season lottery yesterday.
Izzy Brown, on loan from Chelsea, hit the crossbar in a one-sided first half and Wells was denied twice by Keiren Westwood after the interval.

Wells said: “We have to go there and maybe be a little bit more clinical and create maybe a couple more clear-cut chances. If we can get a goal or two, that just may be enough. Maybe even one.”
Wednesday will fancy their chances of reaching Wembley for the second year running after chalking up a 17th clean sheet of the season.
“I am sure that they go back thinking they have a better advantage,” said Wells. “But we can take the dominance from today’s performance and try to do the same and give them nothing and maybe be a bit more clinical.

Terriers boss David Wagner remains optimistic they can win the tie.
He said: “It is game on. We have a big chance after this performance.
“I’m not worried about what they will do. If they play as deep as they did today I’m not sure how their fans will react.”
