Sheffield Wednesday will feel that they were let down by the officiating during their 2-1 defeat vs Luton Town.
Sheffield Wednesday were on their way to a much-needed, and long-awaited league win at Kenilworth Road on Saturday.
Barry Bannan scored an impressive volley and set the Owls up for what would’ve been a well-deserved win vs Luton Town. But the Hatters eventually won the game 2-1.
The comeback started when Di’Shon Bernard was sent off for an apparant handball which led to a Luton penalty; many deem the ball to have struck Bernard’s shoulder, though.
Sheffield Wednesday were denied a penalty of their own, before Carlton Morris scored his and Luton’s second, despite handling the ball before scoring.
Rob Staton has rued Sheffield Wednesday’s misfortune with regards to officiating, with Staton also critical of the officiating during the 1-1 draw vs QPR in the Championship game before.
