Wednesday and Rotherham battle to draw

Sheffield Wednesday and Rotherham United have had to settle for a 0-0 draw this afternoon despite a battling performance from both sides.

A bright start from Wednesday saw Stevie May in dangerous mood as he whipped a good ball into the box, but no Wednesday players were there to meet it.

Rotherham's Alex Revell flicked a diagonal ball inside the Wednesday area before Lee Frecklington lifted the ball over the goal on the stretch.

Minutes later, May turned Kirk Broadfoot well and pulled a shot wide of Adam Collin's right post.

Rotherham should have taken the lead when Paul Green found himself unmarked inside the box but his header from close range went wide.

The second half saw both sides again struggling to create chances, with Green heading another weak header straight at Kieren Westwood from Ben Pringle's cross.

Excellent work from Helan allowed him to carry the ball upfield but his cross had too much on it for Adthe Nuhiu to connect and the chance went begging as both sides went home with a point.
