Huddersfield manager Michael Duff admitted he has warned his side over complacency despite running out 2-1 winners over Stevenage.
Josh Koroma and Ben Wiles were on target for the Terriers with Harvey White’s stoppage-time penalty coming too late for the visitors to salvage anything.
But it could have been a different story if Elliott List had take advantage of a golden opportunity moments after the break and hit what would have been an equaliser for Boro.
"I thought we were excellent first half and not very good second half," said Duff.
"We’ve got to credit Stevenage for the way they came out second half, but we have to do better than what we did.
"We got sloppy and complacent, and once you start like that it’s hard to change. The last kick of the game is the disappointing moment for us, but ultimately it’s a win.
"We’re trying to shift the mentality and say you can’t pick and choose when you turn up and when you don’t.
"They’ve been excellent and set their own standards and they fell below them, so they got a bit of stick there from me, because that’s my job.
"It was just basic things really – not running hard enough, being sloppy, basically thinking the game was won when it wasn’t.
“I think we deserved to win the game, but from my point of view it’s a weird emotion because I’m frustrated and you’re saying well done at the same time.
"It's very rare that happens but it’s a warning shot really."
