A night to remember for Sheffield Wednesday who pulled off a stunning comeback
It was one of the greatest nights in EFL history
Darren Moore’s side knew they needed a miracle to get themselves back into the game, something that came to fruition as lady luck shone down on Sheffield on a quite ridiculous night of action.Fans knew that they needed to be behind their team from start to finish and as a result, Hillsborough was bouncing from the off.
The second leg got off to the perfect start as Michael Smith converted from the spot after nine minutes, while Lee Gregory made it 2-0 to Wednesday after 25 minutes. Peterborough were able to organise themselves and kept the Owls out for around 45 minutes, however, Reece James’ goal after 71 minutes set up a nervy ending for the Posh who knew that Sheffield Wednesday were a goal away from levelling the tie.
Moore’s side pushed everybody forward as the game moved into six minutes of injury time, however Peterborough looked to be holding firm.But as the clock moved towards the 98th minute, Marvin Johnson floated a cross into the box and found Liam Palmer, who scrambled home from inside the six-yard box.
