BBC: Vivaldo Semedo’s stoppage time equaliser denied Sheffield Wednesday their second league win of the season as Watford left it late to snatch a 1-1 draw at Vicarage Road.

Sky: Charlie McNeill’s third goal in two games appeared to have handed rock-bottom Wednesday a rare bit of cheer in a difficult campaign. But just when wasteful Watford, who missed a penalty through skipper Imran Louza, seemed to have run out of ideas, Semedo squeezed a volley from Mamadou Doumbia’s cross under goalkeeper Pierce Charles to salvage a point.

Fran’s Watford Blog: It had been a very frustrating evening of football. The Hornets had created a hatful of chances and should have won at a canter, but a mixture of wasteful finishing and some terrific saves from the Wednesday keeper meant that we needed a late equaliser to salvage a point. The failures in front of goal meant that other deficiencies were more noticeable. The players seemed not to be quick enough to the ball and too often saw passes intercepted as they waited for them to arrive. But there were some excellent moves, especially in the first half. Maamma was a constant menace and should have found the net on more than one occasion. It was unfortunate that he was withdrawn at the break as he was on a yellow card. Louza also had some excellent chances, but his penalty was poor and Kayembe’s disallowed goal seemed to be a bit of a harsh decision. There were a lot of people angry at the referee, who did have some interesting moments during the game, particularly when he tackled Bola, but he was not responsible for the result. We have played a lot worse than that and won this season. It was just one of those nights.
