Jan Siewert hails Huddersfield's 'special' win over Wolves

Jan Siewert hailed Huddersfield's first win under his stewardship and believes the club have what it takes to make a miraculous survival bid.

Steve Mounie scored a dramatic injury-time winner to end Huddersfield's three-month winless run as they beat Wolves 1-0 on Tuesday.

The Terriers had not tasted victory in a Premier League match since November 25 when Wolves were dispatched 2-1 at Molineux but Mounie swept home in the 91st minute to notch his second goal of the season.

The victory still leaves Huddersfield 11 points from safety but offers small hope that a great escape could be on, something that Siewert believes is possible.

"You can't believe how much they suffered when they are not winning," he said.

"They deserved everything form the game. They left their hearts on the pitch.

"They showed another face so that's a big thing for the squad today.

"Since the time I arrived, I said we still have a chance and we believe that. There are still games to go. We will keep on fighting.

"The staff, all the people who are working here deserve credit. You can feel the atmosphere of celebration. The first win is always special. The people working here are so brilliant, I am proud to be a part of them.

"On Saturday we have to go once more. Nothing changes for me. We have to go on".
