The game was then turned on its head in the second half when Steven Fletcher pulled a goal back for the home side before Sam Hutchinson was sent off after tumbling Marlon Pack to the floor in the box.
The tension was then raised even further as Lee Tomlin hit his penalty against the post and as Wednesday broke upfield Gary O’Neil was red-carded for The Robins.

With both teams down to 10 men, Wednesday then drew level through Barry Bannan’s 75th minute goal before Lee’s winning goal secured all three points for The Owls deep in to injury time.
After the game City manager Lee Johnson was left to comment on his side’s performance, and, as reported by the BBC, said: “It was a bad dream, wasn’t it? It wasn’t bad luck because we should have scored a third goal from the penalty spot.
“The sending off of O’Neil altered the course of the game. He won the ball cleanly and it was disappointing that he [the referee] got that wrong. I thought we were excellent in the first half, slick and quick on the counter. We completely bossed them in the first half and they kept hitting a brick wall. They ran out of ideas.
“The most disappointing thing for me was a couple crumbled out of my lot. I see it in the mindset and it does happen. What you can’t do is freeze. You have to be brave and bold in everything you do.”
While Wednesday manager Carlos Carvalhal offered a different view when he spoke of his players attitude in the second half, he said: “It was an exciting evening, but it was a very strange game for us. Two-nil down at half-time was very heavy to us. I spoke very calmly to the players at half-time. It was important to speak calmly to them to explain how we could revert things.
“I spoke more to the heart of the players because it wasn’t down to their attitude.
“My players received the message and we did fantastic in the second half. We tried to create problems for them in the second half with different players.
