From memory, there was a mix up in defence which meant kenny and the player

both missed the ball, that meant kenny had to put it out

THere was a scramble like southampton 4-5 from years ago without the goal

Lupoli's header. Lupoli's first minute run and shot (I think, reminded me of hux turning someone on the wing and going towards goal)

Clingan's only opportunity to shoot which Kenny parried

I might have fogotten some other events in the game

I've been making this point all weekend, the crowd was either appreciative of what was happening, but then seconds later bemoaning Roeder for an misplaced pass or interception

We played well, against a good team on their patch. No excuses softening the loss, we just didn't get the breaks

Those stats tell you something else, that Sheffield Utd rely on bullying to get results. With Halsey letting everything go, it was another thing that went in their favour for large parts of the game

It went in ours in sections of the pitch, ie Clarke was just shrugged off all game because of it. Like Lupoli was. Another referee on another day would have booked more and stopped the game. It wasn't particularly bad refereeing, but it didn't suit us
