The Blades thought they had broken the deadlock when Ollie Norwood’s second-half shot hit the back of the net. But the celebrations were cut short by a late flag for offside, and United could find no other way past Blackpool keeper Dan Grimshaw.
Blackpool hit the crossbar in the first half through Josh Bowler, who also fired a second-half shot just wide of the Blades goal in a fine second-half display.

Much calmer than he was against Coventry on Saturday, coping well with threats from Blackpool – both in the air and on the ground. I also sought to advance to support the attacks
