Owls thrash West Brom to extend unbeaten run

Sheffield Wednesday

Since the beginning of January, Ike Ugbo has managed to score a total of eight goals.

Sheffield Wednesday continued their efforts to stay clear of relegation from the Championship by securing a resounding win against West Brom at Hillsborough.

After a duration of 22 minutes, Anthony Musaba started the scoring, and then Ike Ugbo and Josh Windass secured the outcome during the later part of the game.

They have won three out of five games, and Danny Rohl's team sits in 20th place with a three-point cushion over the drop zone.

The Baggies losing the game has made it harder for them to reach the play-offs. They are only three points ahead of Hull, who will play against Ipswich at 20:00 BST and are currently in sixth place, adding more stress to their situation.

In the beginning of the game, both teams had chances to score. Will Vaulks tried to score but Alex Palmer made a good save. Then, Mikey Johnston had a shot on goal after receiving a pass from Jed Wallace and Beadle had to make a save.

On Wednesday, Masaba scored a goal 25 minutes into the game. Vaulks took a corner and almost cleared it, but then Palmer stopped a shot and Masaba scored strongly from a short distance away.

With seven minutes remaining in the first half, Kyle Bartley believed he had scored a goal to even things up for the Baggies. However, his header from a corner kick, which looked like it was headed for the goal, struck Wallace and was ultimately cleared.

During the first half's stoppage time, Yann M'Vila had an opportunity to score. Johnston provided a cross to M'Vila, but he failed to shoot the ball towards the goal.

The home team managed to score their second goal just five minutes after the break. Musaba made a move towards the box, following Barry Bannan's successful tackle in the midfield. The ball ended up in Ugbo's possession, who struck it with immense power and precision, sending it into the roof of the net.

The third goal was scored with a little more than 20 minutes left in the game. Windass quickly put the ball into the net after Palmer made a save from Bannan's shot from a long distance, and the ball then landed in Windass' way.

During an interview with BBC Radio Sheffield, Danny Rohl, who is the manager of Sheffield Wednesday, expressed his thoughts.

My squad did an excellent job, and I feel exceptionally proud of their performance today.

We battled fiercely to protect our penalty area; we had scored three goals and desired to keep the opponents from scoring.

Facing such a tough adversary is no easy feat - they possess great strength and remarkable ball control. However, we managed to hold our own and defend as a cohesive unit for a full 100 minutes. As a result, we truly earned the victory."

We require an additional triumph to secure our position, thus we cannot relax yet. The next seven days demand complete attentiveness and dedication, only then can we truly revel in our victory. These are my expectations of my team.

Today we achieved victory against a highly ranked team, and I feel a great sense of pride. My team and I have put in a tremendous amount of effort and dedication towards this win. While it is important to appreciate this moment, we must remain focused for the upcoming game.

During an interview with BBC Radio WM, West Brom's manager, Carlos Corberan, made a statement.

We feel let down by the outcome as we had hoped to secure a victory and earn three points during today's game.

At the time when we were superior to them, we failed to locate the net. Conversely, when they were dominant, they managed to score some goals.

I believe that our loss in the game was not due to their energy."

The explanation involves the way we tackled the match rather than our failure to convert the opportunities we generated. In the world of football, scoring a goal can completely alter the outcome of a game.

As a coach, it is my duty to carefully examine all aspects of my coaching approach. Conversely, it is the players' task to carefully scrutinize and assess their actions on the field.
