They were dominated by the Blades, without a win all season, and were reliant on fine defending from Fede Fernandez and another excellent save from Karl Darlow. BILLY SHARP kept his cool from the spot as Sheffield United finally claimed their first win of the season against Newcastle. The Blades came into the clash without a victory in 17 attempts Billy Sharp kept his cool to convert from the spot to claim the points And it got worse for the visitors in the final minutes of the half as Ryan Fraser was shown two yellow cards just before the break to leave his teammates on the pitch Ryan Fraser received his marching orders for a second yellow card moments before the break. With the numbers advantage, United came flying out And they got their reward with 18 minutes remaining after VAR judged Federico Fernandez had committed a handball inside the area.
