Huddersfield Town Head Coach admitted the defeat to Fulham was a real knock to his side as the Terriers continue to fight for survival in the Premier League.

It was a mightily cruel afternoon on the banks of the Thames as Fulham snatched a late winner to break Huddersfield Town hearts.

Wagner explained that the result was a bitter blow to take especially so late-on in a match where neither side created too many promising openings.

"This is a very disappointing afternoon for us; obviously it's a real knock.

"Neither side had any real clear-cut chances, but right at the end we conceded on the counter and lost the game.

"In terms of effort and attitude, everything was there.

"We controlled the first-half, then Fulham improved in the second-half. There were no real chances apart from their penalty and counter at the end."

The men from HD1 found offensive ventures of a rare nature in the Capital, with the Head Coach stressing of the need to turn the form around starting with an early New Year home clash with Burnley.

"Before their goal, we had a three-on-three when Erik (Durm) crossed and we could not capitalise.

"This will take more than half an hour after the game to recover from. We have a lot of games to play, but the fact is we need to score more goals and get more points than we are."
