Sheffield United have had a poor run to the start of the 2020/2021 EPL season after proving their worth in the previous season.
With the least points picked after 19 games and last on the league log, Chris Wilder had nothing to lose than go all out against Manchester United who was making waves with their title aspirations on the high.
To record their 20th game of the season, Manchester United played host to Sheffield United at the Old Trafford stadium in an èncou ter that had already been called in favour of Manchester United by many following their impressive run.
Sheffield United who came into this fixture as underdogs came out with their sharpened blades and targeted the nets of Manchester United.
Their desperation paid off in the 23′ as Kean Bryan opened the scoring for the visitors. The confidence of Sheffield started to build from their opener as they were able to gold their loan goal lead into the break of first-half.
Four minutes past an hour into the second half, Manchester United skipper Harry Maguire equalised for the Red Devils and it was game on for the Blades.
Chris Wilder and his men were not done with Ole yet. 10′ after the equaliser ny Maguire, substitute Oliver Burke who had only been on the pitch for four minutes impacted the game in the most devastating form to Manchester United as he scored the second for Sheffield, a goal that was enough to win Chris all three point.
Manchester United started to pile pressure on Sheffield United but the visitors held their lines until the final whistle and picked maximum points for the second time this season after 20 games.
