Leon
Knight saved the day in the fifth minute of injury time, in a game many
fans are calling one of our best achievements this season. This puts us
17th in the table, and a good few teams away from the relegation zone. It
has also put a dent in Sheffield United's race for the Premiership,
especially after their win against Aston Villa last weekend.
Despite
the score being level for much of the second half, Sheffield failed to
score a goal. Carpenter scored just before half time, however it was leveled
with an own goal from Kerry Mayo!
As
the first half opened, Sheffield could have got a 1-0 lead, however they
messed up a couple of chances, finally hitting the side of the goal.
It
wasn't all for Sheffield however, and we had our own chances at goal. A
corner from Carpenter failed to reach the back of the net at this early
stage.
Just
before the break, we caught Sheffield off guard, getting a nice lead
before the half time whistle.
This
was an excellent confidence boost, however it wasn't to last as Kerry Mayo
lifted a deflected ball from Virgo over Kuipers straight into the
net!
The
score was now 1-1, and there was no way we were going to lose the three
points now! Reid got the ball to Knight who managed to get it past United
keeper Kenny to score the winner deep in injury time.
An
excellent game, with an excellent result which almost wasnt!
Is
another three points on the cards for the game against Nottingham Forest?
They got beaten by Millwall 2-1 yesterday, and are currently 23rd in the
league!
