Cameron Archer was denied a fairytale return to Aston Villa this evening as Sheffield United were denied a remarkable victory by a 97th-minute equaliser. Archer had put the Blades into a shock lead against Unai Emery's side, unbeaten in 15 games at home, but Nicolò Zaniolo flicked home deep into nine minutes of injury time to rescue a point for his side.
Villa, who would have gone top of the table with three points, earlier had what they thought was the opening goal when Leon Bailey tapped home, but referee Anthony Taylor ruled it out after being recommended to view his pitchside monitor by VAR. Here's how we rated the Blades' players on an evening of late chaos...
5. Auston Trusty 7
Played his part in a superb defensive rearguard action for the Blades to protect Foderingham despite Villa's domination of terrirory and possession, before they were cruelly denied right at the death

6. Yasser Larouci 7.5
Recalled in place of Lowe down the left and was indebted to Foderingham for a good save after he had been caught out of position, allowing Villa to break quickly down their right. Had a tough task against the lively Diaby but a couple of well-timed challenges did ease some of the pressure. Harshly booked early in the second half and made way not long after for Lowe

7. Vini Souza 7.5
Excellent in midfield, using his physical attributes to protect his defenders and then looking to use the ball when he won it as well

8. Ollie Norwood 7
Recalled as one of the five changes, Norwood aggravated his opposite number Luiz with a challenge the Brazilian took exception to but formed a good partnership with Souza in the face of Ramsey and Luiz
