Sheffield Wednesday 1-0 Plymouth: Callum Paterson sends Owls top of League One
Saturday 4 February 2023 18:24, UK
Callum Paterson’s early goal gave Sheffield Wednesday a 1-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle and saw them replace their opponents as League One leaders on goal difference.
Paterson struck in the seventh minute, producing a fine first-time finish at the near post after meeting a low cross from George Byers.
Michael Cooper made a good save from Aden Flint to prevent the hosts from increasing their lead, turning his shot on to a post with Byers putting the rebound wide.
Plymouth's first effort on goal came from Tyreik Wright, whose free-kick was parried by Cameron Dawson.
The visitors were forced to make a change in goal shortly after the half-hour mark when Cooper went off injured after receiving treatment, with Callum Burton taking over.

After the restart, Macaulay Gillesphey put a header off target and Ryan Hardie shot high and wide from inside the area for Plymouth.
Wednesday's Marvin Johnson then spurned a good chance, volleying over from inside the area and there was more frustration for the home side when a late off-side flag ruled-out a Byers 'goal' in the 78th minute.
