Sheffield Wednesday were forced to settle for a 2-2 draw against Swansea City at Hillsborough on Saturday (via BBC Sport).
After fighting back from 1-0 down, the Owls thought they had won it after goals from Fernando Forestieri in the 81st minute and Morgan Fox in the 91st minute.

However, the Swans managed to claim a share of the spoils with a dramatic 94th-minute equaliser from Ben Wilmot.
It was a huge blow for Garry Monk’s side to concede after thinking they had netted the winner, and many fans pointed the finger of blame towards Keiren Westwood.
The Republic of Ireland goalkeeper endured a poor afternoon at Hillsborough and was at fault for both of Swansea’s goals.
For Andre Ayew’s opener, he flapped at a corner and dropped the ball, which ultimately fell to the Ghanaian who finished (YouTube).
He then misjudged another corner in the dying minutes, trying to punch the ball clear only for it to fly over his head towards Wilmot who tapped home (YouTube).
As a result of his two mistakes, quite a few Sheffield Wednesday fans have been criticising his display on social media. Here is what some had to say about the goalkeeper’s display on Twitter…
Yes Westwood pulled a couple of worldies off but he’s cost us two goals today. Keep saying it, I love him as much as the next Wednesday fan but if Dawson made the same mistakes he’d be slaughtered, yet Westwood doesn’t. People need to start realising he isn’t indispensable #swfc

When are we dropping Westwood for Dawson then?

There is a serious problem with concentration and focus in this squad, especially late in games. I don’t know if it’s nerves, or what it is really, but it needs to change. That being said, that’s 2 major errors from Westwood today. Good as he is, they’re both woeful. #swfc

If that was Dawson there would calls to release him. Big questions over Westwood this season. #swfc
