Coady: Sheff Utd 1-1 Walsall
[article]Despite a slow start, the Blades were the more adventurous in the opening 20 minutes. Coady and Lappin delivered teasing crosses and the first serious chance, on 16 minutes, saw Coady's flicked header from Lappin's corner kicked off the line by Butler.
With both sides battling for midfield supremacy, opportunities were limited at both ends. Walsall had to wait until the 36th minute before registering their first chances - a run and shot from Baxendale - whilst for the Blades, Coady let fly with 30-yarder which was just wide.
A curling Coady cross caused a moment of nervousness for goalkeeper O'Donnell but as the half wore on the visitors looked the more comfortable in possession - a rasping shot from Hemmings deflected off Lappin and was clawed away by Long and then substitute Sawyers then produced a neat touch but McGinn cleared.[/article]
