Luke Ayling has also commended Poveda for his contribution in Sheffield Wednesday’s victory against Millwall. In the Championship clash at The Den, the Owls secured a 2-0 win, with Ike Ugbo and Anthony Musaba scoring in the 31st and 41st minutes, respectively. Despite finishing the game with 10 men due to Ashley Fletcher’s red card, Ian Poveda, who started on the right, played a significant role for Wednesday.
Poveda showcased his energy and attacking prowess during his 79 minutes on the field, making one key pass, maintaining a pass accuracy of 73.1%, attempting four dribbles, taking 39 touches, and contributing with one clearance and one cross. Unfortunately, he had to be substituted off due to an injury.
The Leeds United loanee has garnered praise from Reiss Nelson, Arsenal winger, and Luke Ayling, who is currently on loan at Middlesbrough. Poveda, signed by Wednesday in the January transfer window, has made three starts and one substitute appearance in the Championship, providing one assist. Despite his efforts, Sheffield Wednesday finds themselves second from bottom in the league table.
