Nine-man Wednesday suffered a maiden defeat under Jos Luhukay, going down 3-1 to Birmingham at Hillsborough. What could go wrong did so as mistakes and red cards undermined the Owls’ ambitions against the struggling Blues. The Owls had an uphill task having gone 3-0 down whilst losing Marco Matias in a one-sided first half and then to compound matters, Daniel Pudil was also dismissed after the break. Lucas Joao did find the net but the substitute’s goal proved little more than a consolation.
