The Owls took the lead through Callum Paterson early doors, but were on the backfoot not long afterwards after Liam Shaw’s red card – a fifth of the season for the Owls.
Here are our player ratings after Tony Pulis’ side held on for what will prove to be a good point in the end. Do you agree?
5. Julian Börner - 8
Did his part in what was a bit of a bombardment from the Royals after going down to 10 men. Nothing wrong at all, great shift. Photo: Steve Ellis
6. Massimo Luongo - 7
Looked solid, a tireless effort from the Australian. Unfortunately his yellow means he’ll miss the trip to Norwich. Photo: Steve Ellis
7. Liam Shaw - 4
Shaw – 4 – Another first half red left Wednesday with a lot to do, and his dismissal really changed things for the Owls. He’ll be rightly very disappointed. Photo: Steve Ellis
8. Barry Bannan - 6
Put in a shift, but wasn’t able to run off a knock that he picked up in the first half and was brought off at the break. Photo: Steve Ellis
