- 5' A quiet spell here at Bramall Lane. Fulham FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sheffield United FC that had 371 games and scored 444 goals.
- 15' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 19' Time for substitution for Sheffield United FC. Max Lowe is replaced by Jack Robinson.
- 21' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Andre Zambo Anguissa on 21 minutes.

- 41' Rhian Brewster has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 1 cards already picked up this season.
- 46' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 51' It’s high time Chris Wilder made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 56' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Mario Lemina suffering a number of foals already.
- 61' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Chris Wilder will be considering his options from the bench.
- 64' The supporters are chanting for Rhian Brewster. He replaces David McGoldrick on 64 minute.

- 77' What a moment for Ademola Lookman! That strike on 77 puts his side firmly in control.
- 81' Fulham FC ring the changes. Ruben Loftus-Cheek has done his job and it is now time for Mario Lemina to step up.
- 82' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Ivan Cavaleiro.
- 85' What a strike from Billy Sharp! The score is 1-1.
- 90' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- The points are shared — Sheffield United FC 1-1 Fulham FC. Honours even.
