    Time:90'
    • Derby County
    • Sheffield United
    • 90' Full time whistle. It's finished 1-0 to The Blades.
    • 90' Great save from Bywater denies Ward a second goal for the visitors.
    • 90' There's going to be four minutes of additional time to be played.
    • 89' Derby don't look like they're going to salvage an equaliser.
    • 86' Change for The Blades. Ryan France is on for Stephen Quinn.
    • 83' The Blades made a change in the aftermath of their goal. David Cotterill replaced the provider of the goal, Keith Treacy.
    • 83' More bad news for Derby. Moxey appears to be struggling with a groin injury. Jay McEveley could be his replacement.
    • 79' GOAL FOR SHEFFIELD UNITED! Kilgallon flicks a header over the top of Bywater from a free-kick to give the visitors the lead.
    • 76' From the subsequent corner kick, Hulse thinks he's given Derby the lead but his header drops just wide of the far post.
    • 75' Commons delivery into the box catches Sheffield United cold.
    • 74' Sheffield United make their first change of the game. Ched Evans is on for Darius Henderson.
    • 73' A second substitution for Derby. Kris Commons replaces Lee Croft.
    • 71' A header from Walker but it goes over the bar.
    • 67' Livermore tries a shot from distance but it's blocked by the Blades defence.
    • 66' Addison is penalised for a foul on Morgan. This second half is becoming even worse than the first period.
    • 65' The attendance for today's game is 28,441. An impressive figure for a Championship fixture.
    • 64' Poor touch from Livermore sees a promising attack break down for Derby.
    • 62' Neither side are able to impose themselves on the game. One goal either way will almost certainly win it.
    • 60' Livermore is being prepared as a substitute for the home side. The Tottenham loanee replaces Green.
    • 57' Morgan goes into the referee's book after a foul on Hulse.
    • 55' Henderson sends a header wide of the post.
    • 54' Ward takes the ball away from Pearson but nothing comes of the attack. A tricky customer is the former Chesterfield player.
    • 52' Pearson is the second Derby player to be booked and fourth overall.
    • 51' Not too much change in the action. Neither side are wanting for effort but there isn't a great deal of quality.
    • 48' Quinn fires over the bar after a Sheffield United attack catches Derby on the hop.
    • 47' Woodwork to the rescue! Teale's cross deceives Bunn in the Blades goal and the ball bounces off the crossbar. A lucky escape for the visitors.
    • 45' The Blades get the second half underway.
    • - The teams are back out for the start of the second half, with no changes to either line-up.
    • 45' The half-time whistle is blown and it's goalless at Pride Park.
    • 45' Teale, Hulse and Moxey, who has probably been the home side's best player this half, combine but it comes to nought.
    • 45' A chance to make something happen for Derby but on the breakaway Teale's cross is not of the required standard. There'll be two minutes of time added on at the end of the first half.
    • 44' Treacy hammers a free-kick but it sails high and wide of Bywater's left-hand post.
    • 43' Hulse gives Bunn a bit of bother forcing the keeper to punch clear a cross from Teale.
    • 41' Henderson appears to have talked himself into trouble though. The striker's shown a yellow card by the referee.
    • 40' Savage and Henderson get into an altercation. The latter is called over by the referee but no card will be shown.
    • 38' Bunn is in imposing form in the visitors' goal. He's not had too much to do but his handling has been impeccable.
    • 36' Morgan returns to the fray after a quick check. Just in time for the visitors too as Derby have a corner.
    • 35' Morgan's struggling with what looks to be something in his eye. Sheffield United annoy the home side by having their medical team immediately call a halt to the game.
    • 34' Hulse is getting more into the game but there are no Derby players to get on the end of his flicks.
    • 32' Treacy's cross from the left is met by Henderson but the striker can't direct his shot on target.
    • 30' Well, the weather's nice. That's probably the best thing you can say about the first half an hour.
    • 26' Quinn's cross is just too strong for Henderson in the middle and the ball goes out for a Derby throw.
    • 25' Pearson volleys over the bar in perhaps Derby's best chance of the game so far. It was a great ball into the box by Green.
    • 24' Sloppy would be the best word to describe the first half from Derby's point of view.
    • 23' Bywater launches a kick upfield with no Derby player anywhere in the vicinity. The home fans make an audible groan.
    • 22' Savage is booked after clattering into Quinn. It was a late tackle but the visiting midfielder made the most of it.
    • 21' Green gets caught in two minds with a cross that should have been aimed for Hulse.
    • 19' Goal disallowed for Sheff United. Addison is dispossessed by Ward who runs on and forces a save from Bywater. Henderson taps in the loose ball but is adjudged offside.
    • 15' Hulse becomes the meat in a Harper-Morgan sandwich. Seconds later Montgomery is booked for a foul on Pearson.
    • 14' Henderson has a pop at goal but it's miles wide of Bywater's goal.
    • 13' Derby are struggling to get going. Neither of The Rams' wingers have been able to get into the game. Nigel Clough stands on the touchline with his hands on his hips.
    • 11' A loose pass from Green in midfield gives a needless throw to Sheffield United.
    • 9' Great tackle from Quinn on Savage starts a breakaway for the visitors but Pearon comes to his team's rescue with another fine challenge.
    • 7' Reading midfielder Harper's started busily on his debut for United.
    • 5' Darius Henderson causes bother to the home defence. Treacy attempts to profit but is again off target with his shot.
    • 4' It's a frantic start to the match with challenges aplenty and little in the way of fluidity.
    • 3' The Blades' vocal visiting support watch as Treacy sends a shot wide of Bywater's goal in his team's first effort on goal.
    • 2' Bunn is out competently to deal with Teale's corner.
    • 1' And we're off! The home side are on the attack from the off, winning an early corner.
