Sheffield Wednesday extended their unbeaten league run to seven matches with a commanding 5-0 victory over AFC Wimbledon at Hillsborough. The Owls dominated from the outset, securing a comprehensive win that earned praise from their manager Henrik Pedersen for the team’s intensity and discipline.

Davis Keillor-Dunn was the standout performer, scoring twice in a match that also saw goals from Barry Bannan, Harry Gray, and Callum Slattery. Pedersen highlighted the team’s commitment and tactical execution, emphasizing their pressing, quick transitions, and offensive approach throughout the game.

“We showed hunger from the first moment,” Pedersen said, noting the effective deep runs and forward balls that unsettled Wimbledon’s defense. He added that the players maintained their focus even after taking a decisive lead, ensuring they finished the match strongly despite a comfortable scoreline.

The scoring began in the 38th minute when Bannan set up Keillor-Dunn, whose shot deflected into the net. Just two minutes later, Keillor-Dunn doubled the lead with a composed finish after breaking through the middle. Gray then extended the advantage with a well-taken goal just before halftime, receiving a pass from Jamal Lowe.

Sheffield Wednesday continued to control proceedings in the second half, adding a fourth goal in the 56th minute. Reece James delivered a cross from the left side, which Slattery converted from close range. Keillor-Dunn capped off the scoring with a low strike from the left side of the penalty area in the 85th minute.

AFC Wimbledon were unable to register a single shot on target during the match, with their few attempts—such as those from Myles Hippolyte—missing the goal. Wimbledon manager Johnnie Jackson described the performance as “really, really poor” and admitted feeling “embarrassed” by his side’s display.

“We got what we deserved, which is nothing,” Jackson said. He expressed regret over the manner of the loss rather than the result itself, stating that he felt compelled to apologize to supporters for the team’s overall showing on the pitch.

The defeat marks a difficult moment for AFC Wimbledon, while Sheffield Wednesday’s emphatic win underlines their growing confidence and attacking potency as they push forward in the league campaign.
