Former Sheffield Wednesday midfielder praises big win over Aston Villa.
Sheffield Wednesday upset the form book at the weekend as they defeated Aston Villa 2-1.
Two early goals from Adam Reach and Jordan Rhodes put the Owls in front with Villa netting an injury time consolation through Christopher Samba.
Former Sheffield Wednesday midfielder Jose Semedo reacted happily to see Carlos Carvalhal’s side chalk up a win, taking to Twitter to praise the team.
Semedo spent six years at Wednesday before his release in the summer. He signed with Portuguese side Vitoria.
After a poor run, Wednesday have now won their last two games and have climbed up to 11th place, level on points with a freefalling Leeds United.
For Aston Villa the loss was a big blow made worse by losing defender John Terry to a broken metatarsal.
Steve Bruce’s side sit in sixth place heading into the international break occupying a play-off spot, but Sheffield Wednesday are within three points of them.
