Wim Jonk scores for Wednesday |
When Chelsea turned up at Hillsborough, they were on a good run of domestic form having been unbeaten in 20 games including six as English Champions. They had even picked up wins over Marseille, Feyenoord and Barcelona in that time and booked a place in the FA Cup final. Relegation battlers Sheffield Wednesday should have been a foregone conclusion.
The Owls had different ideas though. Points were desperately needed by Wednesday and they were set on their way through a second half penalty. Gilles De Bilde was adjudged to have been brought down by Chelsea goalkeeper Ed De Goey, who was a tad fortunate to escape a red card. Wim Jonk stepped up to dispatch the penalty kick for Wednesday.
Chelsea had their chances but it just wasn't their day.
Sheffield Wednesday may have been stuck near the bottom but at least they were Champions.
