A first-half hat-trick from Radoslaw Majewski has left Nottingham Forest in a strong position at half time against Huddersfield Town.

James Vaughan looked sharp from the outset, taking his first shot inside the opening two minutes, before being flagged offside a couple of minutes later.

The 24-year-old got the breakthrough for the visitors in the 10th minute, firing the ball into the top of the net from deep inside the penalty area.

A strong spell from Forest saw the hosts find their way back into the game, Majewski levelling the sides with a close-range strike after 20 minutes.

The home side took the lead just three minutes later through Elliott Ward, the on-loan defender heading the ball in from an Andy Reid free kick.

Majewski added his second towards the end of the half, having been set up by Dexter Blackstock, before competing his hat-trick in the 43rd minute to give Forest a 4-1 lead at the break.
