The fallout from Sheffield Wednesday’s Hull City defeat - Goals, missing players and shouldering blame

Wednesday took the lead through Juan Delgado in the first half, however were pegged back in stoppage time after Ozan Tufan got his first of the afternoon from the spot. He grabbed two more in the second half before Aaron Connelly got in on the action, with Michael Smith getting a late consolation goal before the referee blew the whistle at 4-2.

With no midweek game there’s a whole week to work on the training ground, and for new arrivals to get settled, and it may be even be a week where we see more new faces come through the door.
