It was more of the same at Hillsborough as the Owls’ long wait for a home win continued. Jerry Yates got a consolation goal, but first-half strikes from James Bree and Ryan Manning, followed by a second-half finish by Taylor Harwood-Bellis, put the hosts to the sword this weekend.
Again Wednesday missed a chance to move off -7 points, and it’s growing increasingly likely that they’ll become the first club to finish a league campaign in the minus. Fans at S6 made themselves heard once more, but again head home without that winning feeling.
Here’s how we rated the Wednesday players after the latest miserable afternoon in the Championship:
1. Seny Dieng - 6
Some good work from the goalkeeper once again, and he wasn't at all to blame for the first two goals. A decent outing from the shot-stopper, but could maybe have done better before the third. | UGC
2. Sean Fusire - 6
Did pretty well as he tried to get up and down the right-hand side for the Owls. Wasn't able to set the world alight, but was a decent outlet. | UGC
3. Liam Palmer - 5
Made some solid interventions over the course of the 90 minutes, but it was another tough afternoon for the Wednesday defence. | UGC
4. Dominic Iorfa - 5
Another game under his belt, with Iorfa playing 80 minutes at Hillsborough. Not his best outing in a Wednesday shirt, but he had some good moments, too, including a good marauding run forward. | UGC
