TIME FOR ACTION
2 Ian Moore strikes the ball hard but it flies straight at Kevin Pressman
3 Wednesday break away t o take the lead with a sloppy goal. A Nik Michopoulos mistake ends up with Paul McLaren's uncomplicated shot finding the bottom corner.
5 Things go from bad to worse as Ashley Westwood is allowed to poke the ball home from Brian Barry-Murphy's cross.
6 Michopoulos recovers to make a double stop first from Sheki Kuqi's header, then Grant Holt's follow-up
8 Mark McGregor is quickly sacrificed for long throw-in specialist Matt O'Neill
11 Moore turns on the edge of the box then shoots but his effort is topped away by Pressman
16 Robbie Blake's free kick for a trip on O'Neill whistles past the left post
20 Moore is sent off for kicking out at Brian Barry-Murphy
27 Chris Stringer replaces the injured Pressman in the Wednesday goal
31 Richard Chaplow goes close after Blake's free kick is cleared
32 It's 3-0 thanks to Richard Wood, who take advantage of a static defence
38 Marlon Beresford comes on for the injured Michopoulos
42 The Clarets pull a goal back through Blake's spot kick
46 The Owls restore their three-goal cushion as substitute Paul Evans' cross seemed to take a defelction and wrong-foot Beresford
53 Blake's on target again to offer Burnley some hope
66 Not for long as Steven Haslam capitalises on half-hearted defending to make it 5-2
73 Arthur Gnohere sums up a miserable afternoon for Burnley by putting through his own net.
80 It's a not so magnificent seven against Burnley for the second time in a month. But Alan Quinn has saved the best goal until last - a right-foot screamer from outside the area
