Swansea 'most defensively-minded team' I've played against - Huddersfield star Mooy

Huddersfield Town midfielder Aaron Mooy insists Swansea City were the "most defensively-minded team" he'd ever played against in Europe.

The Terriers were unable to break down a Swans outfit that were put down to ten men early on in the game when Jordan Ayew was given his marching orders.

The Australian international has encountered plenty of negative tactics in his career, but none more so than on Saturday against Carlos Carvalhal's side.

Mooy said: "Sometimes you face small sides on international duty and all they do is sit back and you have to break them down.

"However I think that's the most defensively-minded team I've ever played against in Europe."
