Sheffield Wednesday and Middlesbrough remain rooted in the Championship relegation zone after sharing the spoils at Hillsborough.
After an early stoppage due to home fans throwing tennis balls on the pitch in protest at their ownership, Wednesday took the lead when Anthony Musaba fired in from seven yards.
Darragh Lenihan levelled shortly after half-time, turning home a corner, and, from there, the visitors began to take control.
Boro's Matt Crooks had a goal disallowed for offside as the visitors had the better of the second period although George Byers missed a good late chance for Wednesday.
