Carlos Carvalhal: 'Sheffield Wednesday players were fantastic'

Sheffield Wednesday manager Carlos Carvalhal hails his side's "fantastic" performance as they came from a goal down to beat Wolves 4-1 in the Championship.

Sheffield Wednesday manager Carlos Carvalhal has described his side's performance in their 4-1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers this afternoon as "fantastic".

The Owls came from a goal down to cruise to a comfortable win at Hillsborough, ending a five-match winless streak in all competitions in the process.

Carvalhal hailed his side's response to going behind in the 16th minute, and refused to single out any individual player for extra praise following what he deemed an impressive team display.

"We had a challenge and the players were fantastic. We didn't start well but after the first 15 minutes we did well against difficult opponents. Today was the day of our players," he told reporters.

"The most important thing was the reaction after we conceded a goal. I won't talk about individual performances because it was all about the team. The team worked very well. We did well in attack and defence and the reaction when we lost the ball was fantastic. The set pieces were also very good.

"It is the day of the Sheffield Wednesday team and I don't think it is correct that I mention anyone in particular. I am very happy with all the players. There were 11 players trying and working together to win the game and that it what I appreciate."

The result lifts Wednesday up to seventh in the Championship table, one point outside the playoff places.
