15' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
19' Gustavo Hamer puts Sheffield United FC on the lead.
24' Daniel Grimshaw has been relatively quiet despite scoring 1 goals in his last 444 appearances.
29' A quiet spell here at Bramall Lane. Plymouth Argyle FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
34' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Sheffield United FC and Plymouth Argyle FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
39' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kornel Szucs made 338 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
44' The travelling Plymouth Argyle FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
49' Zimbabwe international Brendan Galloway has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
52' A change in the Sheffield United FC ranks — Jesurun Rak-Sakyi exits the field as Jamie Shackleton enters on 52.
53' A tactical swap from Sheffield United FC — Sam McCallum on, Harrison Burrows off on 53 minutes.
58' Lewis Gibson is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Sheffield United FC tonight.

65' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
68' The referee has no hesitation. Darko Gyabi is booked for Plymouth Argyle FC — card on 68.
73' Ryan Hardie has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
74' The Plymouth Argyle FC bench stirs into life. Darko Gyabi is withdrawn and Adam Forshaw gets his opportunity.
75' The supporters are chanting for Andre Gray. He replaces Ryan Hardie on 75 minute.
80' The supporters are chanting for Callum Wright. He replaces Michael Obafemi on 80 minute.
85' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Sheffield United FC that had 374 games and scored 445 goals.
86' Rhian Brewster is replacing Callum O'Hare for the Sheffield United FC side.
88' What composure from Kieffer Moore! The Wales international strokes it home. 2-0.
89' Sheffield United FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Rhys Norrington-Davies is hanging Tom Davies on the field on 89 minute.
