In the end, it was Andre Green who found the winning touch by collecting a nice ball from Massimo Luongo, but it was well deserved after Wednesday forced a number of goalkeeper saves and also touched the cross bar twice.
It was a second pre-season win for the Owls after their 2-0 win over Chester this weekend, but they certainly had to fight for the win against a Reds team that held their ground and forced Wednesday’s keepers a few stops from theirs.
Speaking of the meeting, Moore told The Star, “We worked hard… We worked really hard, man for man, and thank Billy for training tonight. It was good for us, and we needed it.
“The players, if they thought they were going to come here and that everything would go their own way, they were very wrong – which is great.
“We really wish them luck. It’s a lovely club, the setup is really good and it was a really good workout for the guys.
Meanwhile, on Shodipo, who almost opened his account in the first half, Moore says he’s exactly what they want.
He said: “As half-time went on it looked like he was warming up, really… You see what he’s going to bring us – he’ll create, he’ll score and he’ll give defenders the opposition to be really worried about in terms of the threat it carries. ”That’s what we want.
“You could see him warming up, and I think at the end of the 45 minutes he could have continued. But there are more games for him to get used to his new surroundings and his teammates, and I think he can be happy with his 45 minutes downtime.
