Andre Brooks put Sheffield United ahead in the 17th minute with a left-footed strike from outside the box, the game finishing Millwall 1-1 Sheffield United.

He latched onto Gustavo Hamer's pass on a fast break and drilled low into the bottom right (17.).

Soon after, he created another opening with a precise cross that Sam McCallum headed on target, only for Max Crocombe to save (25.). Then he supplied Thomas Cannon with a teasing centre that drew another stop in the third minute of first half stoppage time.

After the restart, the Blades' winger kept the pressure on, winning a free kick high up the pitch (73.). He finished with one goal from his only attempt, two key passes and two accurate crosses from two, plus 11 ball recoveries and three tackles won.

His direct dribbling and relentless work rate pinned the Lions back, and his repeated regains ensured the Blades could break from advanced areas.

The Blades host Oxford United next in the Championship. The Lions visit Wrexham.
