Sheffield Wednesday lost vital ground on their relegation-threatened rivals in the Championship on Wednesday evening. 

The Owls were beaten 2-1 by Rotherham United at Hillsborough, which now means they're seven points adrift of safety heading into their final 13 matches of this year's campaign.

The Millers took the lead early on through Michael Smith, but the Rotherham forward was sent-off midway through the second-half.

Sheffield Wednesday's pressure paid off with eight minutes remaining of the contest, as Matthew Olosunde's own goal drew them level on the night.

The Owls had the chance to find a winner with a late corner, but Izzy Brown's cross lacked conviction, as Rotherham counter-attacked, with Freddie Ladapo eventually firing home the winner.

Brown took to Twitter following that costly mistake, and expressed his eagerness to put things right in their next match on Saturday, when they take on promotion-chasing Reading.

Hold my hands up, the corner was no where near good enough from me!! It hurts me as much as it does all of you, we have to move onto Saturday now & put things right????

Izzy Brown never puts a Wednesday shirt on again in my opinion for that corner alone #swfc

I thought Darren Potter was the worse corner kick taker I'd ever seen, up steps Izzy Brown. #swfc

Izzy Brown wants not paying a week based on that corner kick alone. Everyone committed forward trying to win the game against 10 and he does that. Embarrassing.
