Will Squires almost catches out Michael Acquah at his near post as he heads Dannen Francis’ cross towards goal, but the Huddersfield keeper makes a fine reaction stop.
23 - Pleasing on the eye
Pool are noticeably playing in a very similar manner to how Neil Critchley likes the first-team to play. The keeper and defenders are all very comfortable with the ball at their feet.
21 - Huddersfield corner
Will Squires gets across to snuff out some danger, but he concedes a corner. Potential danger here.
17 - Wide
Jack Moore drops his shoulder before rifling a low effort that just misses the near post. Good effort.
16 - Good defending
Dannen Francis delivers a teasing cross from the right which appears to be heading straight for Tayt Trusty, but a Huddersfield man gets a vital touch.
This is one-way traffic at the moment.
Luke Mariette waltzes past his marker before seeing his drive into the box palmed away from the danger area by Michael Acquah.
13 - Standout
Luke Mariette has started really well for the Seasiders. He’s been in commanding form in the middle of the park so far.
Dannen Francis, meanwhile, wins Pool a corner.
12 - Offside
Pool work the ball well from right to left but they’re caught offside. John Murphy’s men have started well here.
8 - Good spell
Pool have had a decent little spell here, but it ends with Johnny Johnston bobbling a long-range shot straight at keeper Alex McLachlan.
