Owls stretch unbeaten run after derby draw

Wednesday took a point from a scrappy goalless clash with Sheff U at Hillsborough on Monday evening.

In a game of few chances, our only shot on target came after 65 minutes when Sam Hutchinson slid in to connect with a tremendous low cross from Rolando Aarons but shot straight at keeper Dean Henderson from eight yards out.

At the other end, Sheff U’s one effort on goal came after just seven minutes when Keiren Westwood pulled off an excellent save to block a header from ex-Owl Gary Madine.

The visitors dominated the later stages but we held firm in defence to stretch our unbeaten run under Steve Bruce to seven games, with five clean sheets from those matches, and moved to within six points of the play-off places.

Westwood, Iorfa (Fox 79), Lees, Hector, Palmer, Aarons, Hutchinson, Bannan, Reach, Fletcher (Nuhiu 90), Forestieri (Boyd 46). Att: 31,630.
