Full marks for Sheffield Wednesday star after 5-2 win over Burton Albion
A Barry Bannan masterclass helped Sheffield Wednesday to a 5-2 win over Burton Albion at Hillsborough.
FT 5-2 Wednesday
Ultimately a brilliant response from Sheffield Wednesday after throwing away a two-goal lead. You can’t be too unhappy with five goals at home, including some strikes of real quality.
The run continues - that’s seven wins from eight and the Owls have matched their best run of form since the 2011/12 season.
GOAL - 5-2
It’s Bannan again and it is BEAUTIFUL. Hutchinson finds him 20 or so yards out and he bends it into the top corner.
I thought Johnson’s goal was the best of the night, but that was better.
Bannan!
Wow. A lovely one-two with Paterson results in him bending one towards the far post which flies just wide.
He could have had a hat-trick tonight. The man is on fire.
4-2 Marvellous Marvin
Best goal of the night. A half-volley from just outside the box which almost breaks the net after Burton fail to properly clear Bannan’s corner.
