Decisive figure pulls strings as Sheffield United see off Ipswich | OneFootball

Gustavo Hamer unlocked the game in the 38th minute with a fast-break assist, setting Sheffield United on their way to a 3-1 win over Ipswich Town.

He led that break and slipped in Callum O'Hare to fire from outside the box (38.), a punch that shifted the momentum towards the Blades.

After the restart, he split the Tractor Boys with a defence-splitting through ball for Patrick Bamford to finish (66.), restoring control and tempo for United.

Hamer's numbers backed up the eye test: two assists, three key passes and two big chances created in 73 minutes before he was replaced due to injury (73.). It underlined how he connected attacks and fed runners for the Blades.

The Blades pressed and broke quickly, and Hamer repeatedly found pockets between the lines, turning to thread passes that kept Ipswich's back line stretched and reactive.

The Blades visit Millwall next, while the Tractor Boys host Preston North End.
