The West Brom manager, Carlos Corberan, discussed Sheffield Wednesday’s change in tactics following their midweek victory.
West Brom effectively dealt with Sheffield Wednesday’s more direct style of play during the first half, ultimately controlling the game and preventing the visitors from mounting a significant threat.
Corberan acknowledged Wednesday’s more physical and aggressive approach, emphasizing the importance of not underestimating their challenge, despite West Brom’s challenging season start.
He pointed out that West Brom managed to progress on the field during the first half and handled the opponent’s attempts, particularly those involving second balls and set pieces.
Corberan credited his team for maintaining a solid defense in the second half, limiting Sheffield Wednesday’s opportunities to break or counterattack.
Although there were concerns about late long balls from the opposition, Corberan praised his team’s bravery in maintaining a high defensive line.
It’s worth noting that Sheffield Wednesday is still searching for their first win in the league, with 61 days passing since their season opener against Southampton.
