Brentford survives Wednesday scare
Brentford beat Championship side Sheffield Wednesday 5-4 on penalties after a 1-1 draw in their Carabao Cup fourth-round tie.
Thomas Frank's Premier League side went a goal ahead initially through forward Kevin Schade, but was unable to extend its lead, with Wednesday giving as good as it got despite having less of the ball.
Danny Rohl's visitor got level 12 minutes into the second half through a lovely long-range Djeidi Gassama strike after an error by Brentford goalkeeper Mark Flekken.
With no winner forthcoming, the tie went to penalties. Nine perfect efforts followed before Liam Palmer saw the 10th and decisive spot kick saved by Flekken, booking the Bees' place in the last eight.
