A second-half comeback with goals from Lee Gregory and Callum Paterson cancelled out Josh Key’s opener and gave the Owls three vital points.

Moore said: “In the first 45 minutes we were non-existent. We looked really tired and I thought we had no spark.

“I told the lads at halftime we had to take the game to Exeter and we had to dig deep. They went out in the second half and that’s what they did.

“We tried to remain calm, there’s no point in ranting and raving. We just had to regroup. They’re an experienced bunch so they know what it takes.

“Their goal gave us a spark. It was a game of two halves, we started forcing the errors from Exeter. Once we got the second I thought we looked worthy of the three points.

“We’re dealing with the expectation here and I have to give the players credit. Three points are expected every week, but they’ve still got to manage that.
