Late Otegbayo Goal Earns Sheffield Wednesday Draw Against Charlton

SHEFFIELD, England (Interstat) — Sheffield Wednesday and Charlton Athletic played to a 1-1 draw in an English Championship match Saturday at Hillsborough Stadium.

Substitute Matt Godden put visiting Charlton ahead in the 49th minute, assisted by fellow substitute Harry Clarke. Wednesday midfielder Gabriel Otegbayo leveled the score in the 76th minute, finishing a pass from forward Jaden Heskey.

The result defied pre-match projections from Interstat, which gave Charlton a 60.9 percent probability to win and forecast a 2-1 victory. Both teams are now 0-0-1 to start their league campaigns. The match included yellow cards for Charlton’s Greg Docherty and Clarke, and Wednesday’s Heskey.
