Sheffield Wednesday Beats Portsmouth 2-1 in Championship

Sheffield Wednesday achieved a comeback victory against Portsmouth, winning 2-1 after trailing at halftime. Portsmouth's Connor Ogilvie opened the scoring in the first half, but Josh Windass equalized shortly after the break, capitalizing on a knockdown from Michael Smith. Smith then secured the win with a stunning long-range strike in the 70th minute, marking only his second start of the season. Both teams made significant changes, with Portsmouth's Jordan Archer starting his first league match since May 2021, due to an injury to Nicolas Schmid. The win propels Wednesday into the top half of the Championship table, while Portsmouth remains at the bottom. This match highlighted the importance of effective substitutions and tactical adjustments by both managers, John Mousinho and Danny Rohl.
