Who was your Norwich Man of the Match against Sheffield Wednesday?

Norwich failed to establish a firm grip on the Championship title after scraping a 2-2 home draw to Sheffield Wednesday.

With Leeds United having lost to Wigan earlier on Friday, and with Sheffield United having beaten Nottingham Forest, a win for Norwich would have put them in a very comfortable position.

Marco Stiepermann was set up by Onel Hernandez in the 19th minute, firing low past Cameron Dawson from 20 yards out.

Wednesday equalised after the half hour mark, with Fernando Forestieri rifling a sweet strike past Tim Krul from 30 yards out, while a goal-line scrap saw Steven Fletcher give the Owls the lead in his second attempt shortly after the second half restart.

Mario Vrancic, who came off the bench for the Canaries, scored with an inch perfect free-kick in the dying seconds of the 97th minute to rescue a point for the home side.

Norwich now face Stoke, Blackburn and Aston Villa in their race to both secure automatic promotion to the PRemier League, as well as winning the division title.
