The two sides played out a ding-dong second half in which they both looked to win the game. And it was the Owls that did so, Anthony Musaba poking Charles through to send the away end into chaos and his side towards a deserved away win.
It serves as a mark of character for Wednesday, who has less preparation time, more travel time after their midweek draw at Bristol City. Coming from behind after Jack Rudoni’s opener, Djeidi Gassama produced a classy strike back to level the scored before that late, late drama.
The win elevates Wednesday into 15th place in the table with 11 points heading into the international break. Here are our ratings from a barn-storming encounter in the Midlands.
13. Anthony Musaba - 8
On to offer more with half an hour to go. His pace really caused a problem or two as he sought to nip around beyond the defence - and what a difference he made. Grabbed the assist with a silky run and touch. On his day, he's some player. | UGC
14. Michael Smith - N/A
On with 15 minutes to go. Ran plenty and made sure he was a nuisance when he could. | UGC
16. Callum Paterson - N/A
On in stoppage time with a snazzy new hair do. | UGC / Steve Ellis
