Wrexham moved back into the Championship play-off places after their hard- fought 1-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough.

Sam Smith's fourth goal in six Championship games was enough to see the Red Dragons return to sixth place after Derby's dismantling of Bristol City on Friday night.

Things seem to be going from bad to worse for Wednesday this season following the departure of captain and star man Barry Bannan earlier in the week.

Wrexham on the other hand, had just one loss in their last eight in all competitions before coming into this one and knew victory was a must to keep their play-off push rolling on.

Issa Kabore was the first to test Owls goalkeeper Murphy Cooper, crashing in an effort from the edge of the box after Reece Johnson's unconvincing clearance.

At the other end, on-loan Luton man and debutant Jerry Yates had a sight of goal after being played through by Jamal Lowe but he could only drive his effort over the bar.

Nathan Broadhead could have got on the scoresheet following some good work by Callum Doyle down the left but he mistimed his header from inside the box.
