What Darren Moore had to say after Sheffield Wednesday's win over Charlton Athletic
and live on Freeview channel 276
The Owls’ last home game saw them score and concede three goals in a dramatic 3-3 draw with Portsmouth, but they then went on to pick up their first three points of the campaign with a solid 1-0 win away at MK Dons.
Today, as two former Premier League sides go head to head, they’ll be eager to keep up their fine run of form at Hillsborough, though they will have to do it without summer signings, Michael Smith and Akin Famewo, who have both been ruled out. Famewo, sadly, is going to be out for some time.

Key Events
- Wednesday won 2-0 in this tie last season
- The Owls are on an 11-game unbeaten run at home
All over!
It wasn’t pretty, and it maybe wasn’t altogether deserved, but Wednesday have their first three points of the season at home and the unbeaten run goes on! A tough slog for the Owls, but they won’t mind that. Great result.
Windass again!
Great work from Sow to wriggle away from his man and find Windass on the edge of the box. He strikes with venom, but it’s just over the top.
Another chance!
Sow very unlucky not to double Wednesday’s lead... Windass with more excellent work down the right, and he squared it nicely to the Dutchman. His connection was good, but a strong block stopped it from hitting the back of the net.
And it’s 1-0!
Wednesday lead!! The ball was moved out to Windass on the right, and he put an absolute dream of a cross into the centre of the box - Bakinson watched it, timed his run perfectly, and powered home his header. Wednesday lead.
