Managerless Sheffield Wednesday were held to a 1-1 draw by Cambridge United at Hillsborough on Tuesday night.

The visitors had the better chances in the first 45 but The Owls improved at the midway point but couldn’t make the breakthrough.

But they did five minutes after the break when a quick free-kick from Callum Slattery sent Mason Burstow through on goal and he smashed in via the post.

Burstow was denied a second from six-yards out by a stunning save from Jake Eastwood and Cambridge made them pay when Sullay Kaikai drilled in to finish off a counter-attack.

Barry Bannan hit the post with a curling strike as Wednesday tried to get back in front but they had goalkeeper Ashley Maynard-Brewer to thank for earning them a point with some smart saves in each half, including two late on in a mad scramble.

The draw keeps Wednesday outside the play-offs after 12 games as the search for a new manager goes on following the sacking of Henrik Pedersen at the weekend.
