SHUARS

FA Cup Quarter Final away for the fourth game in a row since the restart of the season at Sheffield United.

The Blades having a great season but have tailed off after the lockdown and so we had a chance.

A pretty tame first half but a 1-0 lead courtesy of a penalty after what looked like a clumsy tackle on Lacazette. 

The second half was more in their favour and on 90 minutes another defensive cockup and they are level.

Extra time beckoned.

Then the drama. Finally a quick break with pace. Pepe closed down in the box, Ceballos takes it on. A break unchallenged by defenders.

The keeper comes off his line towards him. Dani slides the ball between him and the post and it's 2-1 in the final minute of added time.

At last the team showed some guts and determination.  They fought for the win as a team.  About bloody time!

Manchester City next in the Semi at Wembley.
