Sheffield Wednesday 4 Portsmouth 1 - LIVE
Key Events
GOAL - Wednesday!!!!
In the 85th minute George Byers makes it 4-1 after Callam Paterson had forced a corner. The play off place is secured
Bannan down injured
A lot of concern as Bannan is getting treatment after going down holding the back of his leg.
He’s been replaced by Callum Paterson but the Owls skipper at least walked off the pitch
Another great save from BPF
Fair play to the Owls stopper for maintaining his concentration levels because he’s had little to do today until the last couple of minutes. This time it was Hirst played in and the striker turned well and got a strong shot away but BPF stood tall and saved
Sub coming up
Josh Windass has been patiently waiting to come on but it’s been delayed a little by Lee Gregory giving away a free kick in a dangerous area.
That leads to a corner which almost reaps a goal but Bailey Peacock-Farrell, who hasn’t had a lot to do today palmed away brilliantly
JUST OVER!
Gregory is a class act, isn’t he? Brings the ball down with ease over his shoulder and pokes the ball over Bazunu.. but it’s just over.
