Rohl Hails Sheffield Wednesday’s ‘Big Character’ in Stoke Win

Sheffield Wednesday secured a 2-0 victory against Stoke, overcoming the challenge of playing the entire second half with only 10 players following Di’Shon Bernard’s red card. Speaking to BBC Radio Sheffield, Manager Danny Rohl stated: “I am very happy with the three points. Big credit to my team, it was a little bit of a strange week but we stick together and showed big character today – we showed the togetherness we need.” Rohl further commented on his squad’s attributes, saying: “My team has a strong mentality, willingness, we want to take points. 32 points after 22 games is massive. First half I felt we controlled the game but then the reaction from the team (after the red card) was great.” The manager also expressed satisfaction with individual performances, noting: “I am very happy with the assist from Yan Valery, we have four or five players who overcame illness overnight, it’s a good story with Callum Paterson who scored – for him it’s not always easy but he is always trying, it was great to see him score.”
