Lewis-Potter<\/a>. <\/p>\nThe pair combined again on 27 minutes to give Andrews\u2019 side the lead. Jensen\u2019s free-kick from the left was delivered at pace and Lewis-Potter poked home from close range. <\/p>\n
Charlie McNeill\u2019s first-time strike from 25 yards was held by H\u00e1kon Valdimarsson as the hosts threatened Brentford\u2019s goal for the first time. <\/p>\n
At the other end, Nelson had two chances in quick succession. The Arsenal loanee tried to squeeze the ball in from a tight angle having been played in by Henderson but was thwarted by Charles. <\/p>\n
Jensen\u2019s cross from the right then bounced through to the forward but he shot straight at the young keeper from a central position inside the six-yard box. <\/p>\n
Having assisted Brentford\u2019s first goal, Jensen had a golden opportunity to score the Bees\u2019 second. The Dane latched onto Henderson\u2019s long ball over the top and advanced towards goal but lifted his shot over the crossbar under pressure from a recovering Owls defender. <\/p>\n
McNeill blasted a free-kick over the bar in the final seconds before the break. <\/p>\n
Charles made a string of impressive saves at the start of the second half. <\/p>\n
Lewis-Potter rounded the Wednesday keeper and lifted in a cross from the byline. Donovan brought the ball down but didn\u2019t connect cleanly with his shot and Charles darted across his goal line to keep it out. <\/p>\n
Charles was at full stretch to push Lewis-Potter\u2019s looping effort over the crossbar after the former Hull City man had been picked out by Vitaly Janelt. <\/p>\n
Charles then showed great reactions to push Jensen\u2019s snapshot to safety. The keeper injured himself in the process and was replaced by Logan Stretch for the final half an hour at Hillsborough. <\/p>\n
Stretch\u2019s first job was the pick the ball out of his own net. Donovan, a livewire on his full debut, drew a foul from McGhee in the Owls\u2019 penalty area, and Jensen smashed in from the spot in front of the travelling supporters. <\/p>\n
Nathan Redmond cut in from the left and saw his low drive from the edge of the box pushed out by Valdimarsson. Svante Ingelsson headed the resulting corner towards goal, but Valdimarsson was again well positioned to make a save. <\/p>\n
Donovan\u2019s driven cross somehow evaded every player in a crowded six-yard box and Sean Fusire turned out for a corner. <\/p>\n
Gustavo Nunes raced through and tried to lift the ball over Stretch, but the Owls keeper stood his ground and made a save. <\/p>\n
Stretch then flung himself to his left and got a strong hand to Lewis-Potter\u2019s header after the forward had met Jensen\u2019s in-swinging corner inside the six-yard box. <\/p>\n

Keith Andrews: Our players won\u2019t underestimate any challenge<\/p>\n
Head coach Keith Andrews shared his thoughts after Brentford’s 2-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re very respectful of the competition and the opposition,\u201d he began. <\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m a big fan of cup competitions, so I wanted to treat it really seriously. Our players will always have the right attitude going into games \u2013 they won\u2019t underestimate any challenge. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe dealt with it well today.\u201d<\/p>\n
Romelle Donovan made his first start for the Bees at Hillsborough, and Andrews was impressed with the 19-year-old\u2019s performance. <\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s been champing at the bit, as everybody knows,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
\u201cHe plays with so much enthusiasm; he wants the ball, he wants to be positive. I want our attacking players to try and make things happen, and I think he does that. <\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s constantly learning the game, of course. He\u2019s young and raw in certain aspects, and we need to keep nudging him in the right direction, but he was really good today.\u201d<\/p>\n
Keane Lewis-Potter pleased with FA Cup progression <\/p>\n
Keane Lewis-Potter, scorer of Brentford\u2019s first goal against Sheffield Wednesday, praised the Bees\u2019 attitude at Hillsborough. <\/p>\n
\u201cThese games can be tough sometimes, but it was a good win and we\u2019re through to the next round,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
\u201cOur aim is to get as far as possible. We needed to do things properly like we always do. These places can be difficult to come to.\u201d<\/p>\n
On his close-range finish, Lewis-Potter added: \u201cIt\u2019s something I work on every day, being in the right place at the right time for a tap-in.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Keane Lewis-Potter and Mathias Jensen were on target as Brentford progressed to the fourth round of the Emirates…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":364393,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":["post-364392","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/364392","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=364392"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/364392\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/364393"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=364392"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=364392"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=364392"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
