FDB from range!
The midfield man has a crack from outside the box after taking it down on his chest - but it’s wide.
Sent for a hotdog
A couple of stepovers from Adeniran who easily beat his man there... The keeper gathered the ball in easily though.
The Owls really should be leading
More good work down the right finds wing unmarked in the box, but his connection with the ball is bad and it bobbles off to his left.
Wednesday have a corner now.
Feels like it’ll just take one...
Newcastle’s kids holding firm for now, but it just feels like if SWFC get one then the floodgates could open.
And another...
That was close! Really nice ball from Corbeanu, and Wing fires wide… He caught that well!
Another Wednesday chance!
Sow with another opportunity after it was laid off by Adeniran... Good work down the right from Corbeanu in the build-up.
Wednesday find themselves in on goal with Sow breaking into the box, but his powerful shot is palmed away strongly by Langley. Good chance, that.
The setup?
Early doors here and the pace is still being figured out...
Wednesday have got Kamberi leading the line up top, with Corbeanu on his right and Sow on the left - no doubt that will alternate as the game goes on.
We’ve got Johnson at left back again, with Palmer going on the right.
