Sheffield United were coming off the back of a narrow victory against Stoke City at the weekend and it had looked like they would take a point at Bramall Lane until Jake Cooper scored an injury-time winner for The Lions.
It is another step back for the Blades in their bid for promotion back to the Premier League as they remain on 15 points and now sit in 17th place in the Championship table.
Slavisa Jokanovic’s side have had a rather inconsistent start to the campaign and have now won only four of the 13 matches played (D3 L6).
They face their Yorkshire rivals Barnsley at the Oakwell Stadium on Sunday and will be hoping to get their season back on track, with the Tykes currently struggling at the bottom of the league.
Here are the best of today’s Championship rumours...
