Swansea held by Sheffield United as defences dominate | OneFootball

Match in Five Sentences: Swansea City and Sheffield United played out a 0-0 draw. Callum O'Hare struck the bar in the 39th minute after Sydie Peck teed him up. After the break, the Blades carried more threat, with Japhet Tanganga off target (56., 67.) and Patrick Bamford missing from close range (72.). Swansea had 68.6% possession but produced just one shot on target, while the Blades posted 12 attempts. Swansea stay seventh and visit Derby next, while the Blades remain 15th and head to Blackburn in the EFL Cup.

Player of the Match: Lawrence Vigouroux kept a composed clean sheet, making two saves including a firm stop from Sydie Peck and handling crosses confidently across 10 recoveries.

Stat of the Match: The Blades were caught offside six times, a sign of repeated runs in behind that lacked timing.

Three Things We Learned: Swansea attempted 25 crosses at 16.0% accuracy, showing a flank-heavy approach that rarely connected. The Blades fashioned the clearer looks with 12 total attempts and two on target, plus O'Hare's effort against the bar. Swansea completed 542 passes at 79.2% accuracy yet managed only one shot on target.
