Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl praised his side’s display after a vital 3-0 win over West Brom gave their Championship survival hopes a huge lift.
Goals from Anthony Musaba, Ike Ugbo and Josh Windass earned the result which leaves the Owls requiring just a point at Sunderland next weekend to be certain of staying in the second tier.
Rohl said: “It was a big performance from my team. I’m really proud of my team, beating a top-six team.
“We were playing against a strong side when you look at how they play and how they press. We were defending as a team and we defended our box towards the end as if it was 1-0. We wanted a clean sheet.
“From the last five games we have taken 11 points, which is an average of two points per game, which is not so bad. It’s a big improvement. The mind-set is right and it was outstanding for me today.
“I think since I arrived here, we have always talked about the process and the journey. This helps when you have bad results and it helps as well when you have good results.
“You see the table and we are still not over the line. We are not still safe. It means that for us we keep going and work hard next week. Then hopefully we can celebrate.
“I think we will go for three points. For me it is not a time to celebrate or be lazy. If we are lazy then we have a problem.”
West Brom remain in the play-off places but will need to book their top-six place on the last day of the season, and boss Carlos Corberan admitted he expected more of his players.
He said: “I think there were some moments of the game. In the first half it was equal. They didn’t create many chances and we didn’t create many chances.
“I think it’s clear that we didn’t compete at the level which was needed today to be able to pick up the result we wanted.
“It’s important now to analyse the reasons for that. We are one group of players and one group of staff members who will always take responsibility. You have to find the solutions on the back
of a result like this.
“The first goal for them was a goal where we cleared the first ball but they put it straight back in and scored. We have to manage those situations much better.
“We couldn’t use any of our opportunities to score. It’s important now to find the solutions.
“In football, the only important thing is how you finish after 46 matches. We know that we have to win the next game to achieve our objective.”
