The game seemed to be moving towards a routine Wednesday win for much of the match after Anthony Musaba’s well-finished first half strike put them in the driving seat and with plenty of the control. That was before Karlan Grant’s deflected effort on 74 minutes opened things back up, with Kion Etete’s late poke bundled home to give the Bluebirds a smash-and-grab win.
Substitute Ashley Fletcher was then the subject of two penalty shouts late in the game that left Wednesday players incensed, with many remonstrating with the officials for some minutes after the final whistle.
“There were two actions in the box and, yeah, maybe there was a foul maybe not,” Röhl said in customary cool style. “I haven’t seen it closely at this point, but we are really disappointed when we invest so much energy into a game and don’t take something. We must go forward.”
