Crystal Palace defender Andersen enjoyed battle with Sheffield Utd's Osula

Crystal Palace defender Joachim Andersen enjoyed facing fellow Dane Wiliam Osula and Sheffield United this season.

Andersen played opposite the 20 year-old when Palace won 1-0 against the Blades.

He recalled, "I have spoken to him. He trained a bit with us this summer when we had some training before we went to the real national team gathering.

"I didn't know him there, but I had a chat with him, and we actually have the same agent, so it was a lot of fun. We had a good chat during and after the game, so it was very nice.

"I just told him to keep doing what he's doing. He is a skilled striker who is difficult to play against. He has a lot of power and is fast."
