FC Halifax Town v Sheffield United u21s LIVE

Cross flashes through the box from the left by Town but no one there in the middle to meet it

Not been enough of a response from Town since falling behind, never mind since HT. Haven’t really got hold of the ball and dictated play at any point since the break. Missing a Summerfield type in that sense. Cooke and Oluwabori not really impacted things since coming on

Finally an attack and a shot from Town, a low one from Oluwabori, tipped away by the keeper. Harker put the rebound off target from a tight angle but think he was offside anyway

Good tackle by Clarke after some silky football in midfield from Sheff Utd. Town off the pace really, Sheff Utd looking the better team. Can’t really recall a Town attack/shot this half

Scott on for Johnson, Keane, Clarke and another triallist now making up the back three, and a different triallist in central midfield

Town lose the ball in the Sheff Utd half and they break quickly with a ball through a scarcely populated Town defence, striker gets through one on one and beat Johnson

1-2

Shot from range saved low to his right by Sam Johnson fairly comfortably

United remain the smoother side in possession, able to retain the ball for longer and higher up the pitch

Town have got a triallist at RCB and at CM - neither have really stood out. RCB has been caught out with his distribution while the game has passed the CM by somewhat

I stand corrected - Oluwabori has replaced Alli
