Unseen hero keeps Swansea steady against Sheffield United

Lawrence Vigouroux kept Swansea City level in the 68th minute with a low save, as Swansea City and Sheffield United drew 0-0.

He had already denied Sam McCallum with a reflex stop in the second minute of first half stoppage time, clawing away the defender's header from Harrison Burrows' cross.

After the restart, he got down smartly to his right to parry a skidding effort from distance (68.).

He finished with two saves, two clearances and 10 recoveries, a calm, busy display that underpinned Swansea's clean sheet against the Blades.

Because the visitors looked to hit early deliveries from wide areas, his positioning and handling steadied Swansea and allowed them to keep building from the back.

Swansea visit Derby next in the Championship. The Blades go to Blackburn in the EFL Cup.
