But, seven minutes later the away end were cheering when United were awarded with a penalty; Ahmed Fathi took a strike at goal which appeared to hit the arm of former Blades youth player Kevin Davies. Danny Webber netted the penalty.

The Blades second goal came on 63rd minute, Chris Amstrong swung in a corner which Chris Morgan got onto but Chris Lucketti was able to tap home from a short distance.
