Live Fleetwood v Sheffield Wednesday updates from FA Cup fourth ...
Sheffield Wednesday are on the road tonight, facing Fleetwood in an FA Cup fourth-round replay.
The meeting will be the fourth between the two sides in just over a month. They met on Boxing Day in the league, before successive meetings at Hillsborough in January. The latter resulted in a draw, leading to tonight's replay in Lancashire.
The prize on offer is an away trip to either Ipswich Town or Burnley in the last-16 of the world's oldest cup competition. Darren Moore's side go into tonight's game in superb form, having not lost any of their last 14 games in all competitions.
Recap the blog below.
21:38KEY EVENT
Fleetwood go through 1-0.
21:36Ricky Charlesworth
Wednesday can't get it into the box. Fleetwood holding firm.

Five minutes added on
21:29Ricky Charlesworth
Wilks meets a centre but it hits his own man, Smith.
21:28Ricky Charlesworth
Hayes off, Nsiala on.
21:24Ricky Charlesworth
FDB goes down in the box but despite plenty of appeals from the Wednesdayites behind the goal, nothing is given.
21:22Ricky Charlesworth
Smith meets a long cross but it pinballs off Byers and goes wide of goal.
21:18Ricky Charlesworth
Wilks has the ball in the net but the offside flag was raised long before that.
21:16Ricky Charlesworth
Goalscorer Mendes Gomes is off, replaced by MacAdam
21:12Ricky Charlesworth
Windass and Byers are coming on for Fusire and Adeniran
21:10Ricky Charlesworth
Better from Brown as he makes inroads in the Fleetwood half. Finds Adeniran who wins a FK outside the hosts' box.
21:09Ricky Charlesworth
They've hardly troubled the hosts' goal all night. A quarter of the game left but at the minute it's all Fleetwood.
21:05Ricky Charlesworth
Darren Moore will be unhappy at the defending by his side for the goal. Mendes Gomes with a free header. The Owls have tightened up massively from set-pieces this term but that was a poor one to concede.
21:03Ricky Charlesworth
A free-kick was whipped in and Carlos Mendes Gomes applies a bullet header which flies beyond Stockdale.
20:59Ricky Charlesworth
Scramble in the box and Smith gets his head to it but nowhere near enough power.
20:58Ricky Charlesworth
Game becoming scrappy with free-kicks becoming commonplace.
20:54Ricky Charlesworth
Brown is carded - the third Wednesday player to enter the book - after a stray challenge.
20:49Ricky Charlesworth
Good work from Fusire but his effort is tame.
20:48Ricky Charlesworth
Let's hope for an upturn in Owls' fortunes.
20:47Ricky Charlesworth
Iorfa, Alimi-Adetoro and Smith are on for Famewo, Palmer and Gregory.

20:31Ricky Charlesworth
Goalless at Highbury.... not a classic by any stretch
20:31Ricky Charlesworth
Just one minute added on.
20:29Ricky Charlesworth
Brown's backpass was very undercooked. Thankfully Fleetwood do nothing with it before the Owls counter at full speed.
20:27Ricky Charlesworth
Gregory becomes the second Owls player to be booked, after a cynical trip.
20:22Ricky Charlesworth
Good pressure forces Omochere into under-cooking his backpass. Gregory reads it but Lynch rushes out and gets a vital block in.
20:21Ricky Charlesworth
Danny Andrew's free-kick is straight down the throat of Stockdale.
20:19Ricky Charlesworth
Good play from the hosts and Patterson bends an effort that goes just wide. Some home fans housed in this main stand thought it was in.
20:14Ricky Charlesworth
Adeniran is cautioned for an off-the-ball incident in the Owls' area.
