We threw away victory, moans Owls boss Moore

FRUSTRATED Darren Moore admitted Sheffield Wednesday had tossed away another two points.

Wycombe opened the scoring when Anis Mehmeti’s shot took a wicked deflection off Callum Paterson.

The players left the field while a fan received medical attention during the first half before play was allowed to resume.

Moore’s Owls dominated after that and equalised in the ninth minute of added time at the end of the first half through Olamide Shodipo.

Josh Windass (below) put the home side back in front, but Wycombe equalised when Jordan Obita’s free-kick flew past goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell.

Moore said: “It feels like two points dropped, to be honest.

“They will probably feel they got away with it. The stats will show in terms of possession and chances created we should have come away with the three points.

“Wycombe are one of the most experienced sides in the league. They marked us man for man after their second goal and saw the game out well.

“We dust ourselves down. I’m happy with seven points in the last three games but I wanted nine. The second goal was avoidable. It was a silly free-kick to give away.”

Wycombe manager Gareth Ainsworth said: “The boys gave me everything in a tough away fixture. I have an unbelievable set of lads and I am so proud of them. We don’t have the depth of Wednesday, but my boys will fight and scrap.

“The momentum changed after the delay. We lost our way a little bit, but we did very well to come back the way we did.

“I think there were some tired legs out there, but we did great to keep going.

“I’d have taken a point before the game. To get seven points out of three difficult games is fantastic. On the whole

I’m so pleased with where we are after 20 games.

“We have certainly surprised a lot of people.”
