Sheffield Wednesday

A brace from forward Adan George helped Birmingham City return home with all three points as they bested the Owls 2-1 at Bracken Moore Stadium.

Late goals ended the Owls' 23-match unbeaten run as Plymouth prevailed over ten-man Accrington.

Caolan Lavery headed Rovers into the lead on the stroke of half-time but Crawley were rewarded for an improved second half when Khaleel rifled the ball home to put his side two points above second-bottom Hartlepool with a game in hand. It went from bad to worse for Accrington on 51 minutes when Mo Sangare saw red for two yellow cards – their sixth League One dismissal of the season. James Norwood increased Barnsley’s lead two minutes later with a low strike from just outside the area after receiving the ball from Cole.

Chance Watters rifles home. Plymouth's win at Accrington means Moore's men drop down to second tonight but with two games in hand still. Wednesday are defending a 23-game unbeaten run in [League One](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/all-about/efl-league-one) whilst this evening's hosts have not lost any of their last 11 outings. [The Owls](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/all-about/sheffield-wednesday-fc) make the short trip across South Yorkshire to face Michael Duff's side with both teams in superb form.

It's taken five and a half months, but Sheffield Wednesday were beaten 4-2 on Tuesday night – despite staging a dramatic fightback against Barnsley.

There were only 12 minutes on the clock, and Wednesday were in trouble. Liam Kitching finished the job in the 96th minute to put it to bed on the break. With wayward passes and loose touches, Wednesday just couldn’t get a grip on the game. It took a set piece for Wednesday to go closest, but Dominic Iorfa headed over Barry Bannan’s excellent cross from close range. The last game between these two was won because of a high press and constant pressure – Michael Duff’s side forced them into mistakes last time, and it happened again. Wednesday didn’t look comfortable from the off.

Sometimes you build games up so much in your mind, they end up letting you down. Sometimes they do not.

When Gregory netted his second, a home win looked comfortably the least likely result but that was exactly what happened. His strike found the net too. Both have two games in hand and if Tuesday was anything to go by, are absolutely ravenous for promotion. Both sides played with all the cussed bloody-mindeness you expect of a White Rose derby. The Owls kicked off and as soon as they got the ball to Barry Bannan he launched a long pass Kitching simply leapt up and headed away. But their team did not make it to the top of League One by accident, and two tap-ins every bit as good as 30-yarders from Lee Gregory got them back on terms and in pole position to win with 15 minutes left.

The home side went 2-0 up early on following goals from Devante Cole and James Norwood.

“To not get something out of the game is disappointing. “To give them the first two goals in the manner that we gave them was really disappointing. That’s uncharacteristic of us in terms of the goals because we’ve been mean defensively. Sheffield Wednesday wanted to play and pass and we managed to keep pinching it. “They were on the back foot, we got the second goal and we were looking to win the game.

Devante Cole and former Ipswich striker James Norwood gave the Tykes a two-goal lead, before Lee Gregory scored twice to bring Wednesday level. Ipswich are three points further back, having played one game more than the Owls, while Barnsley are now three points behind Town, with one game in hand on the Blues. The results mean Argyle are now two points clear at the top of the table, with Wednesday slipping to second but holding two games in hand on the new leaders.

It was 2-2 when Barry Bannan's ball over the top found Marvin Johnson on the left and his low cross was finished by Gregory - who completed his brace - from close range after 74 minutes. Wednesday reduced the arrears when a long ball from Will Vaulks found Michael Smith on the right and he sent over a low cross which was turned into the net from close range by Lee Gregory just after the half-hour mark. The game burst into life in the 10th minute when Mads Andersen slipped the ball through to Devante Cole on the left-hand side of the area and the striker beat goalkeeper Cameron Dawson with a low, angled shot.

Darren Moore saw Sheffield Wednesday's 23-match unbeaten League One run end at local rivals Barnsley and told his players: "I'm super proud of you."

Barnsley secured a big win over Sheffield Wednesday last night, closing the gap on the Owls, Ipswich and Plymouth Argyle in League One.

Six points is a lot of ground to make up in ten games and they may have to win all of them to have a chance. Ipswich do not have the easiest of run-ins but they are probably already in a mental state where they know they may have to go up via the play-offs. Only Burnley are on a longer unbeaten run in the EFL right now and Barnsley are right in the thick of the promotion race. Barnsley have now picked up 32 points from their last 36 available in League One which is incredible form to be finding at a crucial stage of the season. The gap to Sheffield Wednesday in second stands at six points meanwhile, whilst Duff's side are just three points behind Ipswich with a game in hand. Sheffield Wednesday did go on to level things thanks to a brace from Lee Gregory, and with 15 minutes to go, the league leaders looked like they had the momentum to go on and win.

Sheffield Wednesday manager, Darren Moore, says that he made sure everybody in the side knew how proud he was after their unbeaten run came to an end.

“What we have to do now is bottle that, and move on to the weekend and continue it. I got them to all look at me, and I am super proud of them. I said, ‘Lads, I’m super proud of you’.

If he was to be involved it would have been from the bench but it's good to have him back." Outlining the plans between now and Sunday, Moore confirmed the players would be back at Middlewood this morning before a rest day Thursday. After that come fixtures against Cheltenham, Lincoln and Oxford - all sides in the bottom half of the table. Once again we continue to discuss injuries and the potential return dates for key players. The Owls boss said: "I thought they were two wonderful finishes and he's gutted in there because he thought he should probably have had a hat-trick. And that's exactly what they have to do if they are to get over the line and earn a deserved promotion. [the Owls](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/all-about/sheffield-wednesday-fc) and their vast travelling support, it came away at one of their local rivals and a side gunning to overtake them in the race for automatic promotion. Lee Gregory would probably be the first to admit that his season hasn't panned out as he would have hoped so far. All we can do is approach the next game in the right manner and that's what we'll do at Forest Green on Sunday. So it was good to see him back among the goals at Oakwell. Admittedly, a clutch of niggly injuries and almost as many substitute appearances as he has had starts have played its part. [Darren Moore](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/all-about/darren-moore) was the first to admit it was an off-night for his side.
