JOSH IN TIME

Windass copies dad's Wembley trick

-  MIKE WALTERS

JOSH WINDASS turned Wembley into the land of the rising son by scoring the last-gasp winner which restored Sheffield Wednesday to the Championship. 

Fifteen years after his old man, Dean, volleyed the play-off final winner that took Hull into the Premier League, Windass met Lee Gregory’s cross with a brilliant diving header at the death.

It was desperately cruel on 10-man Barnsley, who will forever curse Adam Phillips’ red card two minutes after they were robbed of a clear penalty by yet another VAR gaffe.

The Tykes were heroic, and still managed to create the better chances in normal time, but in the end they were heartbroken.

Windass said: “That was probably the worst standard of game you will ever watch – the level from both teams was shocking. There was no real quality on show and luckily we got the winner.
