Swansea 0 Sheffield United 0: Post-match reaction as Blades pick up first point of season in Wales
Here’s how the game unfolded, with some post-match reaction from both managers. Refresh your page for the latest update.
Swansea v Blades, LIVE from the Liberty
Huge chance for McGoldrick
as Berge drives from deep and holds off his man brilliantly, before crossing for McGoldrick - he wins the header unchallenged but can’t get it on target and the chance goes wide of the right-hand post
Third and final sub
sees Brewster come off to be replaced by Bogle - not the return to Swansea he would have liked after struggling to affect the game and it’ll be interesting to see where Bogle lines up for the last 12 minutes or so of normal time
McGoldrick goes clear
from McBurnie’s pass, he looks to curl past Benda who saves and the linesman’s flag goes up for offside anyway - he wasn’t offside, so it would have been interesting had he scored there and it had been ruled out, with no VAR in the Championship of course...
Chance for McGoldrick
as Norwood touches it around the corner to set him free, but he’s a bit off balance as he strikes it and it goes over the bar
Osborn crosses low
across the box after a good ball from Norwood, McBurnie looks to get on the end of it but it’s touched behind for a corner which comes to nothing
Ramsdale saves well
down to his right after Lowe twisted and turned in the Blades box before getting his shot away, he drills it hard and low and Ramsdale is down smartly to palm it away to safety, giving his defence a bit of a volley afterwards for good measure - that’s Lowe’s last act of the game as he’s taken off, for Piroe
Sharp comes off for McBurnie
the former Swans striker, of course, who will get just over half an hour to show his worth here, while Oli Burke makes way for Osborn as United, you imagine, tweak their shape slightly
Sharp wins the foul
from Manning as the two chase a long ball, using his experience to draw the foul and win his side a free-kick as McBurnie is readied from the bench, along with Ben Osborn
Manning cuts it out
as Berge looks to get clear down the right hand side before Brewster hits one on the volley from another cross, Brewster takes it first time as it bounces and he can’t get it on target
