Jerry Yates got yet another goal, finding the net to open the scoring for Sheffield Wednesday against Watford.

Liam Palmer was named in the XI to face off this evening. The 34-year-old stalwart was always expected to start tonight for what was his 500th outing in Wednesday colours, and it was thn confirmed that he’ld be leading his teammates out as captain on what was a momentous occasion - even with the current state of things at Hillsborough.

In other team news, Cole McGhee was back into the XI in place of Dominic Iorfa, while Jarvis Thornton was rewarded for his impressive cameo against Derby County with a spot in midfield. Charlie McNeill dropped to the bench.

It was a big night for other reasons, too, with prospective new owner, David Storch, and members of his bid team present for the encounter. The club’s administrators are looking to name a preferred bidder in the near future, with the American now believed to be leading the way.

Here’s how Yates took the lead - courtesy of a brilliant Sean Fusire cross:

Sadly there was a late blow as Vivaldo Semedo grabbed a late equaliser to make sure the spoils were shared. 1-1 it ended.
