Plymouth Argyle vs Sheffield Wednesday: 'Ineffective'...'a royal mess'...'shaky' - Alex Miller's Owls Player Ratings
Sheffield Wednesday’s unbeaten run came to an abrupt end as they were dumped out of the FA Cup at the first round stage for only the second time since 1921.
Plymouth Argyle strolled to a 3-0 victory at Home Park to take their place in the second round where they will face Rochdale, who saw off Notts County in their replay.
Jordan Garrick put the Pilgrims in front on the break and Ryan Hardie slotted in the second before Garrick rounded things off and put an unflattering gloss on the scoreline by taking advantage of a mistake by Wednesday goalkeeper Joe Wildsmith.
Operating in his favoured position, Brown struck an early effort nicely and it was goal-bound were it not for a Scarr block. Looked bright going forward in parts but faded and lost the ball in the build-up to Argyle's opener. Photo: Steve Ellis
This space was blank until the 85th minute, such was his ineffectiveness. Will have games like that at this stage of his career, though that doesn't help Wednesday now. Photo: Steve Ellis
Rasped into a chance-saving sliding tackle to stop Camara from bounding further into the Owls' box early on. Gave away the ball for Plymouth's second and looked fairly displeased with life before he was replaced by Luongo. Photo: Steve Ellis
