Sheff Utd take their place in League One play-off final

Sheffield United made it through to the League One play off final at Wembley after a narrow 1-0 aggregate win over Stevenage in the semi-final. "It always looked like a late goal was going to be needed to separate the two teams," Blades boss Danny Wilson told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"We had to be patient. We weren't going to be able to play with three forwards because of the lack of resources we have here at the moment."

He added: "Richard Cresswell was ruled out with an eye infection and that's just the way his luck is going."

Wilson praised the effect the fans had on helping his side book a berth at the Wembley showpiece.

"They roared us on all game and they were so loud at the end that I couldn't pass messages out on to the pitch," he continued.

"At 0-0 they pushed us on to get that goal and when it went in they went absolutely ballistic.

"That's the kind of support we've had all season and now we have to hope we can do it justice at Wembley."
