Sheffield United moved back into the Championship's automatic promotion places as they hammered leaders Burnley 5-2 at Bramall Lane.
The Blades went 1-0 and then 2-1 down in the first half before a stunning second-half fightback saw them close the gap between themselves and leaders Burnley, with Oli McBurnie on the scoresheet twice.
Jack Robinson also scored, to redeem himself after his error led to Burnley’s second, with Anel Ahmedhodzic and Iliman Ndiaye also on target.

Was then the unfortunate fall-guy for Burnley's opener as he deflected Benson's effort past Foderingham and into his own net, and then cost their second as he was caught in possession. But provided the cross for McBurnie's first goal on his weaker right foot and then scored himself, to complete his personal redemption story. Photo: Simon Bellis
Made his first start since the opening day of the season and had a difficult time against the lively Manuel Benson, picking up a booking for a professional foul on the Burnley man before the half-hour mark and walking a tightrope for the rest of the game. But in the second half Benson barely had a kick and Stevens was fine, until being replaced by Basham as his recovery is managed Photo: Andrew Yates
Lining up against the club he supported as a boy and was as influential as ever, spraying the ball beautifully to either wing and putting a foot in where required. His corner led to United's first goal and almost their third, before Ndiaye's 'goal' was ruled out for offside. Almost picked up a glorious assist with his pass to Baldock Photo: Ashley Crowden
Lost the ball a few times early on and looked frustrated as he flew into tackles but then came into it more as the game settled down. Showed some signs of the productive link-up of old with Stevens before being replaced late on by Arblaster Photo: Bradley Collyer
