"Disappointed to be drawing with Manchester United" - Sheffield United fans react to taking a point against Red Devils

Sheffield United's Oliver McBurnie (third right) scores his side's third goal of the game during the Premier League match at Bramall Lane, Sheffield. Danny Lawson/PA Wire.

The Blades were 2-0 up through John Fleck and Lys Moussett but after a devastating second half spell, the visitors overturned the deficit and took the lead.

However, Oli McBurnie’s last minute goal secured a point for Sheffield United which was the least they deserved on the day.

And the general view of Blades fans after the match was that the journey Chris Wilder has taken them on has them feeling a little bit dejected after taking a point off the biggest club in the world.

@ewandanielbain said: “Wow what a game. Taking it to one of the biggest clubs in the world and feeling disappointed that we didn’t win. Well played lads.”

@CreswellBlade had a similar outlook, adding: “Gutted to score a last minute equaliser against @ManUtd that’s how far we have come blades fans in the last 3 years since losing to *****ing Shrewsbury 2-4 at home. Let’s get our heads up and smash Wolves next week.”

Sheffield United 3-3 Manchester United: Courage, mystery and The Mouss - What we...

Again, @flyingmonkeyuk hammered home the point: “Dropped too deep and missed Mousset's pace. To be disappointed with a point at home against Man United in our first season in the Prem speaks volumes.”

Of course there was praise for the manager from @tyronej1984 who said: “Walking out of Bramall Lane disappointed we haven’t beaten @ManUtd, which would have put us fifth in the @premierleague. Wilder is a genius.”

@AnthonySydney added: “What a game..don't know whether to feel disappoint or elated. Just shows how far we have come. Great character to come back.”

There’s a bit of looking ahead to next season from @benstubbs, who getting ready to book another journey: “WHAT a game of football and what a team we have right now. Those days of getting spanked at home to the likes of Southend seem like a distant memory. Announce Europa league.”

@DaniBryan89 said: “Ohhhh man, what to say about that. Dominated it for 70 mins, threw it away in a crazy 10 mins then shown the b******s to get a result from it. So many positives for me, midfield was quality, front 2 brilliant. Onto Wolves next week.”

There was more on the team’s character from @calcutler, who posted: “Threw away 3 points imo but what fighting spirit to get that goal! Tackles were flying in today! Love it from the lads! Hopefully Egan and hendo back for next game.”

@Drury94 said: “We've outplayed Man Utd for 70 min, yeah we've thrown a 2-0 lead, but what character to come back and get a point, the boys never know when there beaten.”
