Mooy’s passing was sublime in his competitive debut for The Terriers who took to the pitch at their new ground in front of a record opening day gate of nearly 18,500.

And the Aussie quickly won over the home crowd who took to Twitter to salute the midfield maestro.

Fellow Socceroo, Jason Davidson, was left out of the line-up for the home side, while fellow Aussie Callum Elder played a full match for Brentford. - .

Manager David Wagner was clearly happy with the Aussie’s performance, praising the Socceroo and several other players for their “good decisions” in keeping the ball and resisting the urge to go long as they closed out the match.

The much talked about outfit “looked very confident, looked very experienced,” Wagner said.

Goals to loan signings Elias Kachunga and Casey Palmer gave the win to the home side against an equalising goal from Nico Yennaris.

Fans hailed the Mooy for his man of the match performance calling him a "genius", "brilliant" and "top class".
